Which RAM for FM2?

ssmacc · 28 Nov 2012 at 19:03

Hello,

I’m looking for some RAM to match a:

AMD A10-5800K Black Edition
(http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...67&subcat=1946)

I know these actually benefit from faster RAM, the motherboard it’s going in supports up to DDR3 1866 (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-427-GI&groupid=701&catid=1903&subcat=2399)

I can see a few of these are on this week only. However, I have no idea which would be best for me, I’m looking at £35 range (2x4GB).

Any advice appreciated.

Cheers

With FM2 usually faster memory is better.

(What CPU cooler are you looking at using)

That’s the other big question (are you asking due to RAM clearance?) – I’ve asked here:

At this rate I may be forced to spend more than I’d like and get a water all in one CPU cooler (I can’t get a cooler higher than 115mm).

Thanks,
