Can I use my old RAM on my new Mobo ?

[jutnm]

Hello, Currently this is my motherboard i just recently bought.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128651

Specs for the RAM is -

Memory Standard DDR3 2000(O.C.)/ 1866/ 1600 / 1333/ 1066
Number of Memory Slots 4×240pin
Maximum Memory Supported 32GB

My old ram from my PC 5 years ago is

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145263

Capacity
4GB (2 x 2GB)
Type
240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM
Speed
DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)


I just wanted to make sure since i saw that the mobo says it can take 1600 and my old ram is ddr3 1600, that this will still be compatible.

Just checking before I **** up anything.


Thanks.

Yep should work.

DDR3's been around a long time.
