OCZ Gold 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz Low-Voltage Dual Channel Kit

I have used it successfully with the following board without any trouble ASRock N68C-S UCC, Asrock 890FX Deluxe 3.
 
OCZ gold always seemed to be the RAM that caused most problems a while back.

You don't see many posts about it now as OCZ stopped making RAM over 6 months ago and OcUK are selling their remainder stock.

If you're after cheap and cheerful then what about this:

Corsair Value 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz Low Voltage Dual-Channel Kit £23.98

And you can get 1600MHz RAM for similar money:

It'll be fine.

For some reason the motherboard supports "DDR3 2000(OC)/1333/1066 MHz memory modules".

You may have to run it at 1333MHz or have a play around to see if it will run at 1600MHz.

This motherboard has ram multipliers of 4x, 5.33x, 6.66x and 8x busclock so for a 200MHz bus, use 8x for 1600MHz, I use a 250MHz bus and 6.66x to give 1666MHz memory at 1.5V (OCZ gold 12800 and Geil Valueram 12800).
