Hi there,
So I'm building my first rig and since it is my first I'm not looking to overclock, more looking to just build a solid stable rig. As a result of this, I thought I'd use memory with a clock speed of 1600Mhz (as that's what Intel and the majority of mobo manufactures say is the limit without OC'ing) with a low latency to compensate for the slower clock speed.
So I'm looking for some RAM with preferably the following characteristics:
- Compatible with the Z87 chipset.
- Low latency, CAS 9 preferably.
- 1600Mhz clock speed.
- 8GB (2x4GB) compatible with duel channel setup.
- Designed to work with Intel's 4th Generation processors.
I'm a bit stumped as I can't find many which have compatibility with the Z87 chipset directly mentioned on there specifications. Any insight or recommendations would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Char
