    Kingston 2x4gb SPD-EEPROMs Kits Latenz 11-11-11-27 bei 1866 MHz 1,5v pnp The 1.2-equipped with silver heatsink and Intel ® XMP modules are equipped with gold-plated contacts and need 1.5 volts
    or
    Kingston HyperX PnP KHX21S12P1K2/8 2x 4 GB DDR3-RAM, 2133 MHz, CL12
    i have the m18 whit 4x4gb 1600mhz 4900mq 780sli can i expect a boost in performance ?
    i would go for the 2133 mhz but they dont have it in stock so i have to wait but they are cheaper , the 1866mhz are better ?i saw they go also 2133mhz overclocket but i will wait . what do you think ?
    will they go 2133mhz cl11 whit a bit overvolting ?

    The Aliewnare18 can't go past 1866 in ram so buying 2133 is a waste of money.

    Also, both kits you quoted run on 1.5V, that is no good for your Haswell AW18 that needs DDR3L which can run on 1.35V. You need to look at DDR3L ram that runs on 1.35V.
