I am about to buy some RAM but the RAM I want says it goes 2400mhz (Fury Black 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C15 2400MHz Dual Channel Kit)) but my motherboard says RAM speed says it only goes up to 2133 (ASUS Intel B150 Pro Gaming Motherboard) Should this be a problem?

 

Thanks.

No. The speed will downgrade to 2133hz. It'll work fine, just no point to buy 2400.
