Ram for ageing EX58

[mattyg]

Hi

I'm looking at more RAM as the 6Gig I have now is struggling with Lightroom and Photoshop.

I found these

i doubt you'd manage to run higher than 1600mhz with 16gb anyway on x58 so no point in spending on faster ram

oops that's 8gb,idk if you wanted 16gb? if so the giel seems the best priced 16gb kit

I may hang on.
