2nd Gen. Core I5-I7 memory limit ??

[idata]

I was comparing some of latest models of Intel's 2nd Gen (also with I5-760) and I'd like to know this :

in the Memory Specifications, at the line Memory Type, all show 1066-1333,

if my board accepts memory over this "limit" (I.e. 1600) will It slow down my memory to the max output of the CPU (in this case 1333).

or in other simple words, will I find myself with a bottleneck effect ??

please advise.

Yes the CPU has a built in memory controller that will set the RAM speed to 1066. Unless you do overclocking , Not recomended unless you know how .
