What performance? I have now in my build 2GB + 2GB + 4GB +8GB Corsair and g.skill. All working well. Im looking upgrade for 32GB so what is best for me? 4 8GB corsair because I have one or something else? Just wondering.
My 1600MHz 9.9.9.24 mix kit works fine 1866MHz.
So must ask what g.skill memory kit gives better performance cheaper price? This did cost under 100 And did get more memory my 2 build X-58 too. One 4GB stick did not fit in yet.
This build is X-79 Gigabyte + 3930k.

Maybe this helps OP maker too.
Sorry I did "loan" tread :)

Some times mix matching can work, but for most builders that want guaranteed performance, it is best to use a single kit of RAM. It can be a hassle if you purchase 2-3 different types of RAM, then find out you have to run them at DDR3-1333 when you expected them to run at DDR3-1866. To avoid this problem, G.Skill sells complete kits that are pre-matched, tested, and guaranteed to work at the rated specifications.

For the X79 platform, here are some perfect 32GB kits for optimal performance:

Year ago they was cheap. 43€ for 8GB 1600MHz G.skill ares.
Well lets just buy new DDR 4 mobo then :)
My bikes rear tyre costs about same 5-6000km and it is done.
So that is more fun than buy over 300 € memory :D

Maybe they are now more expensive. Did buy 20 that price when they was cheap. I think I have 7 left . I like to do burn outs. 100 speed and then just give it enough gas. Nothing is better than that.
(what u can do pants on) :ouch:
