Hi,

I need a good memory for my gaming build. My CPU is an Intel i5 4670K, and my motherboard is an MSI Z87 G45 - Gaming.

Now I need a good memory with a price range of about £60, but I wouldn't mind going over it by a little (ultimate maximum £100, only if it is really good). I hope to achieve good gaming graphics with my build and fast speeds.

Thank you :)

Thank you AxlFone for your contribution however does Mhz auctually mean more speed ? (In my research I found out that it doesn't).

Also, If I decide to have rams sticks from different companies ie. 8GB Crucial and 2x4GB Kingston do they have to be the same MHz in order to work?

Thank you :)

Freq can matter a great deal - depending on what you do, especially if you multi-task, use imaging, video, CAD, VMs, etc - apps that are memory centric - as far as mixing DRAM - it's never a good idea - no guarantee mixed sets will play together even if the same exact model - that's why they offer such a wide range of number of sticks and densities and they do cost a bit more as the result of the teting to ensure they all play together - those suggested above are all good sets
