Will this ram work with new Haswell build?

[novadragon849]

Hi guys, I want to build a new pc and with Haswell round the corner it seemed logical to go for a Haswell build.

I have been looking in advance for deals to build my pc and I came across some ram that I like and I was hoping someone can help me answer whether it would work with lga 1150 motherboards (Haswell motherboards).

I can't set up a link as the forum blocks out the shop but the description is:

No competitor hinting - Read the rules please

Storage Capacity 16 GB : 4 x 4 GB
Upgrade Type Generic
Technology DDR3 SDRAM
Form Factor DIMM 240-pin
Memory Speed 1333 MHz ( PC3-10600 )
Data Integrity Check Non-ECC
Latency Timings CL9
Features Black XMS heat spreader, dual channel , unbuffered
Manufacturer Warranty Limited lifetime warranty

Because no lga 1150 motherboards are actually released yet, I can't seem to find any info on it. All I know about the lga 1150 motherboards is that it supports ddr3 but I can't find anything on the amount of pins (this ram is 240 pin) and on the voltage (this ram is 1.5v). Does this differ from motherboard to motherboard or are all lga 1150 motherboard the same with regards to this question? If so I probably wait till Haswell comes out and choose a motherboard first before buying any ram in case its not compatible.

Thanks

DDR3 desktop standard is 240pin and 1.5v, this is what Haswell will use.

However 1333mhz is kind of slow. I think officially haswell supports 1600mhz ram, however it should run faster ram fine.

As for the performance increase from faster than 1333mhz... we don't know yet. For sandybridge/ivy bridge in real world applications there was pretty much zero benefit going faster than 1600mhz:

So really it is up to you if you take a chance on 1333mhz ram (assuming it is cheap!)
