Hey!
I'm currently making my first gaming build, and I was wondering which ram (brand and series) would be best for overclocking with an amd CPU, the FX 8350.

I've been looking at Corsair's Vengeance line for a very long time (and the Vengeance Pro), but when I look on their website it says it's for 'best overclocking with Intel's 3rd and 4th generation processors'. Would it still work as well with amd processors?

Edit: Forgot to mention, I want 8GB at either 1600 or 1866 MHz, depending on the price.

Otherwise, please recommend me some! Thanks

Either should work fine for you, just make sure you get 1.5v sticks at either of those speeds. There is no need for 1.65v or 1.6v at either speed, that just means bad chips they use voltage to stabilize. You should be able to just turn on DOCP/EOCP in the bios and it recognize either kit, if not there may be some voltage tweaks neccesary as AMD's memory controler is behind intels
