What memory for this beast?

[Toilet-Duck]

Hi guys!

My rig finally arrived today after getting my 5970 which I ordered in December wahoo!

I was just about to build but forgot to order the ram! Doh!

Can someone recommend me some, I may be over clocking in the future so would like something decent.

I was thinking about Geil 6GB but not sure which to choose or if they are good, could someone recommend me some?

Here is my rig :

Have you got a blank-cheque budget? If not, get the best you can afford. By "best" I mean the RAM which offers the best combination of high bandwidth & tight timings. However, consider first how much you intend to overclock your CPU by - if you want to run it at 4GHz+ then you will probably find it nearly impossible to run some of the higher bandwidth RAM at their rated speed e.g. 2000MHz + 4GHz on an i7 is nearly impossible for most people so you would be better off getting a 1600MHz set and saving a few quid. If money isn't an issue though just get the quickest, most expensive - (Dominator GT etc), and run it slower than the rated speed.

Hi,

Thank for the reply

As I don't know much about memory / RAM I wasn't sure what to go for, is it the correct memory for my motherboard?

Do either of these look good?

Or, which is pretty expensive

No, I don't have a black-cheque budget
