May seem like a stupid question, but will this be compatible with my currnt build?

Gigabyte Z77-D3H Motherboard
i5 3570k OC'd to 4.20GHz pcu
(CPU has on description
'Memory Controller: Dual channel DDR3 1333/1600/1600+ MHz'
which is why Im curious)

Looking at getting 2x8gb of

YOUR BASKET
1 x TeamGroup Vulcan RED 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (TLD316G1600HC9DC01) £125.99
Total : £134.69 (includes shipping : £7.25).



from my current 8gb Kingston hyper x 2x4gb

Any help will be appreciated.

I'm sure it'll work fine.

You can get much cheaper with slightly looser timings: TeamGroup Elite Black 16GB £99.95 until next Wednesday morning.

Or you can get faster RAM for the same sort of money.

Or you could buy another 2x4GB for around £65-£70 to make up 16GB with what you have now.

Don't forget you qualify for free shipping as well.
 
I have a CPU Cooler which gives me not a lot of room at all for different Ram, I contacted Overclockers and gave them my details, they said that this teamgroup memory should fit,and having 4x4gb sticks could effect my cpu overclock.

Thats great that I can save 30 quid and they both look good dimensions.
If there is other memory I can get thats about the same price and which is better, could I get some reccomendations?

Any that seem to be of this kind of size would be cool
