I don't understand the RAM. My motherboard supports 3866Mhz

Google it, this isn't tech support.

No, you clearly do not

CPU to RAM clock can be asynchronous.

DDR means double data rate. For every real clock tick the RAM can transfer data in both directions which makes it double the click effectively.

This is explained by me, a total retard in his own layman terms, correct me it i'm wrong please.

Stupid questions thread, and if your mobo isn't retarded (ASUS is usually good about this) it will just underclock the RAM to whatever speed your CPU can support.

>>55340047
The supported speeds listed are for your CPU's memory controller, and what it will default to. It can use higher frequency memory, but you need to overclock the RAM to hit those speeds, you can't just put it in and have a 3200mhz kit boot to 3200mhz.

The memory speed supported by is less tangible, and has to do with the manufacturer's internal testing, and wire lengths to the socket. Don't worry about this one so much. If the CPU is stable then the rest of the board will be stable.


TL;DR is
You buy a 3200mhz kit and install it
the computer boots with the RAM clocked at 2133mhz
You have to go into bios and change the settings manually to 3200mhz

Its pretty simple actually

Nothing here is even remotely relevant to the OP. Just kill yourself.
