X220 - Cas 11, 1.5V DDR3 1600 memory question

Hey everyone,

I recently upgraded from an older dell laptop to a x220 which I really love. I recently was offered the following memory from a friend of mine for an amazing price.

G.SKILL 16GB (2 x 8G) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Laptop Memory Model F3-1600C11D-16GSQ - Newegg.ca

The price? $60.00

Now currently I have 4 gig's in my x220 but I do a bit of vitalization work/GNS3 simulation so the more memory the better.
The current memory in my system is:

Item Slot #1
Ram Type DDR3
Maximum Clock Speed (MHz) 667 (JEDEC)
Maximum Transfer Speed (MHz) DDR3-1333
Maximum Bandwidth (MB/s) PC3-10600
Memory Capacity (MB) 4096
Jedec Manufacture Name Micron Technology
SPD Revision 1.0
Registered No
ECC No
DIMM Slot # 1
Manufactured Week 13 of Year 2011
Module Part # 16JSF51264HZ-1G4D1
Module Revision 0x4431
Module Serial # 0xFD6056D1
Module Manufacturing Location 15
# of Row Addressing Bits 15
# of Column Addressing Bits 10
# of Banks 8
# of Ranks 2
Device Width in Bits 8
Bus Width in Bits 64
Module Voltage 1.5V
CAS Latencies Supported 5 6 7 8 9 10
Timings @ Max Frequency (JEDEC) 9-9-9-24


Now the memory from G.Skill is CAS latency 11, 1.5V.
From what I recall, it being DDR3 1600mhz, it will downclock to 1333mhz due to my chipset correct?


Would I be safe with this memory as long as it works fine and memtest86 passes it?

 

Yes, it should work fine.
