Hi all,
I'm just finishing off a full new build and have a quick question on RAM...
I've got a Z97 mobo (here) and a i5 5490K (here) so hopefully both of these suggestions are compatible and I haven't done anything ridiculous - if so please let me know
I had original specced TeamGroup Elite but have just found some TeamGroup Xtreem which has a higher speed but higher timings. The PC is going to be used for photoshop and lightroom photo editing, so I'm just trying to work out which will perform better, higher RAM speed or tighter timings...
I haven't really got deeply into RAM overclocking before so I can do a bit but would like to stay within relatively 'safe' limits...
Cheers in advance!
Rich
