Hi guys. I guess the question is slightly pointless as its all going to be significantly faster than my current agp/1 gig ddr setup, but im still a little confused about the memory.

As you may have guessed its a while since I upgraded, but ive basically decided to go for the i7, a 4870x2, raid 5, and probably the rampage II . (I'm treating myself) :)

I'll be going for 3x2gigs of something. But what would be the best memory to get? (also, my budget is getting a little bit stretched by this point)
 
hello - thanks for the response :) I was thinking about the 1333 from corsair, but of course when it comes to the overclocking stuff I get lost quite quickly with memory.

I do intend to overclock the 920, though I dont plan too push it too far. As this is the case, what memory is necessary to be compatible with the overclock?

Thank you again for your help.
 
I read that its very easy to overclock these processors with the rampage. Apparently theres a screen that lets you do it when you start up. Do you recommend pushing the processor in the way that is available and if so, what would the difference in memory be? (and would it be significantly more expensive?)
