Hi guys,

Quick noobie question.

I am looking at getting the following MB :

Asus Crosshair III Formula AMD 790FX

Question is, what ram should I get and how much?

I am currently looking at the following :

Corsair Dominator 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C8 (1600MHz)

Overkill???

Also does that mean I MUST overclock for it to work based on the 1600OC requirement?

Many thanks for the help.

Cheers,

Pieter.

:D
 
Looks good to me! :)

It's faster than the AM3 platform requires but I'm sure theres a way to get it running at full speed!

Corsair make very nice memory! . . . . I would search some reviews of your motherboard and see what they say about the memory, it's always good to do your homework before you spend! ;)
 
Corsair is normally fine in ASUS boards, the only real problems I've had have been with OCZ in ASUS motherboards.
