In my experience XMS3 is proving to be the most compatible, and the easiest ram to work with.

I'm glad you made the right choice

lol

well when i didn't get any replies i figured i should stop being lazy and get back into the swing of things pc wise and investigate. Last pc i built was about 3-4 years ago and a few things have changed although more so with processors than ram.

At least your investigating came up with the right answer.

Enjoy your new build.

Sorry for barging in but ive just ordered some PC components and the RAM i wanted went out of stock just as i ordered it. Anyway, i now need some other ram and i was wondering if this corsair ram would work with this CPU and Motherboard?

CPU - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-265-AM
Motherboard - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-405-AS

Thanks in advance

The Corsair XMS3 will be fine with that motherboard and processor.
