It should work. The officially supported speed is Intel playing it safe and doesn't really mean anything.

HI! I was wanting to upgrade my cpu to an i5-8400, (I don't have the money for an i7 and my mobo isn't overclock friendly) and I noticed that my ddr4-2133 ram isn't supported in the 8400 product page. If I were to buy the chip would my ram still work?

Wait what's your current CPU?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
