Depends on the CPU you have.

That memory does not need XMP profile since its just a normal DDR3 speed.
Everything above 1866 requires you to enable XMP profile.

You should be fine unless the CPU only supports DDR3 1333Mhz

Then buy 1333 Mhz memory.

Your CPU will more likely bottleneck the system than the memory would so 1600 Mhz would be a waste of money ;)
