Best ram choice for my mother board and Cpu?

[muffinman542]

I was wondering what would be the best choice of ram for my AMD FX-8350 Vishera 4.0GHz Cpu and my ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 motherboard. I pretty much just game and that's it. Battlefield 3, League of legends, cs 1.6 and such. I just want the fastest performance for games and keeping the ram under 200$

I would recommend 8GB of RAM @ 1600 MHz for gaming. More RAM won't really improve frame rates, and more speed won't make a noticeable difference either. If you're going 8gb, get something like corsair vengeance pro, if you want more RAM, say 16GB, vengeance LP looks great and is guaranteed to fit with any CPU cooler.

I ended up just buying the (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2400 (PC3 19200) Desktop Memory Model F3-19200CL10Q. I do some video editing and graphic designing on the side, so I figured I would just max out what the motherboard could do and save the time of upgrading again for now. Thanks man!

Nice! Totally overkill, but I guess you can now edit 10000x10000 PSD files without having to have scratch disc!
