I know that this has been asked so many times, but still wanted advice on my setup please?
I have a Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3, FX6300, Samsung 830 ssd, HD6770 (although will upgrade when the 8000 series come out prob a 8870 or maybe 7870 depending on prices) an arctic cooler 13 so have lost one memory slot.
I would like 2x4gb ram, I wasnt sure which speed as Im unsure the fastest I can run, I was thinking about 2400mhz but was unsure if I can run this fast and also they all seem to be 1.65V so dont know if I can use it anyway? Also I noticed they are CL11, but Im guessing this is not really an issue? So I was wondering if I would be better off with 2133 or 1866?
I am looking to spend £40-£60, but preferbly the lower if theres not much difference.
Thanks in advance
 
Tbh 1600 would be fine, most people including myself run this speed.

You will need to get ram rated @ 1.5v according to the specs on the Gigabyte website.
 
Ok, thats great, thanks very much, Im guessing theres not much to choose between them all?
 
I was thinking Samsung greens, does anyone know if they will be compatible?
