I have the above motherboard and processor and can anyone recommend the best RAM to get for this combo.Putting together a build and am a bit of a newbie.
I want 4GB x 2.

Thank you

1600 will provide the best performance, simply install the DRAM go into BIOS and enable XMP and it will set to 1600 and all should be fine - look for 1600/9 DRAM, GSkill Sniper would be a great choice or their Ripjaws X in 1600/9

A good point, but more importantly, the i5-4440 which contains the memory controller supports both DDR3- 1333MHz and 1600MHz. Both board and CPU have to support your chosen memory speed otherwise the memory will be run at a speed (lower) that both support.
