hi all,I'm finally upgrading my CPU,mono & ram(refer my sig).
I'm getting i7 2600k+Asus maximus iv gene-z.
Suggest a ram to couple with the above combo.Will be ocing i7 to 4-4.5ghz so need a stable & easily ocable ram.
only 4gb is enough as I'm using 32bit os.
TIA.
How is this.

well i like corsair vengeance and g.skill ripjaw X.
if you don't have very huge CPU cooler then go for these but if you have huge cooler then you can go for corsair vengeance LP module.
and its better to use 2X2GB set cause by that you can use benefits of dual channel RAM and can overclock them a little higher.

cheers mate!

The ram you wish to purchase should depend upon how much you are going to store in it.

my suggestion akky89,better buy gskill ripjaws 4X2 (8GB).even corsair vengeance are good but gskill has better ocing potential.
