That motherboard only supports 1333 DDR3 RAM. 1600MHz RAM would not be fully utilized with that motherboard, so no sense in spending the extra money on it. "Transcend JetRam" is nothing I've ever heard of. Corsair, I can guarantee you, is better RAM, but the product ID you provided is for 1600MHz. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231402

Edit: I should say "that motherboard only supports UP TO 1333MHz RAM" 1333 is the max speed for that mobo

Well, I certainly would recommend getting a graphics card first. Also, a hard drive haha. You're missing a couple parts to complete a rig, so give us a budget and we can help you out more precisely.

The Gigabyte websites memory support page say this mobo supports up to 1600Mhz RAM: http://download.gigabyte.eu/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-78lmt-usb3.pdf
Is there something I'm missing here? Any faster speed memory will be downgraded to 1600 automatically.
Ebuyer lists speed max as 1333? Could they be wrong as well? Trying to build a cheap, high performance AMD system with SATA3 support for a 500 MB/s SSD, already have the Corsair memory. Maybe a later bios update added more headroom? Good specs for a cheap MATX board with an internal USB 3 header, just what I'm looking for - £39.69!
