    At last, someone else (a user from msi forum) who has the same problem as me:

    "I have the same EXACT problem with my BB Marshal board! I actually posted a topic here months ago, and some of the people from the forums told me that it was because the RAM chips are usually 'rated' at 1333MHz, and sold to us "overclocked." I checked it out with CPU-Z, and sure enough my RAM was 'rated' at 1333. Interesting enough though, I recently moved that same exact RAM to my new build with a GD-80 board, and had no issues running the RAM at its "overclocked" speed of 1866, or even overclocked to 2133 with a voltage bump. Obviously, it seems to be a BB Marshal problem then, but having put in two other tickets to MSI support with no help, ive given up on them and settled to running my RAM at 1600 (not that big of a deal, but still...).

      That's MSI Forums, they look at CPU-Z and think that it's actually looking at the chip itself as to what it shows in MAX-BANDWIDTH, when in fact that is the default boot freq. As Jammer mentioned above, the folks with their hobby at MSI Forums often have no clue what they are saying, they read 'the sky is falling' and they take it as gospel. I still think it's a mobo problem as others have also experienced this with the Big Bang

        Ive found the P8P67 WS in very good price but is my memory compatible with that?

          Yes the ASUS mobo can handle the Ripjaws X quite nicely
