Hi people

Getting myself an i5 2500k and an Asus P8P67 PRO Intel P67. Need advice on the best 1600MHz 8GB RAM to buy.

Don't really know anything about timings etc so need your advice.

It's actually this Vengeance on offer not the one you linked to -

What's the difference between the two vengeance?

Also what is the difference between those you linked and this that I was looking at?

The last link you have to the G.Skill is the one that I was just about to post about, excellent ram, the only thing you maybe need to consider is the height of the ram may interfere with the CPU cooler, depending on what you have or plan to get? The ram specs as far as I remember are the same for those linked to.

oops, thanks for correcting me! Have updated link in post.

The difference is the Timings.

The incorrect link was for 'C8' CAS 8-8-8-24 Timings
The correct link is for 'C9' CAS 9-9-9-24 Timings
