Hello, Im in the middle of a new build which will have a Custom Liquid Cooled setup

Rampage IV Black Edition - Liquid Cooled
i7 4930K - Liquid Cooled
Sli S/C GTX 780's - Liquid Cooled

The ram I dont plan to liquid cool, unless I really have to.

Now im stuck at RAM, I generally have always used Corsair or Kingston however I live in Australia so getting certain computer parts can be a real pain in the ass. I wanna run the fastest ram I can for a non restrictive overclock.

Currently im looking at G Skill, never dealt with them before so any input here would be good, cheers.

Im looking at possibly this one - http://www.cplonline.com.au/g-skill-32gb-4x8g-2400mhz-ripjaws-z-f3-19200cl10q-32gbzhd.html

A mate of mine is telling me to get 2 of these - http://www.cplonline.com.au/kingston-16gb-kit-2x8g-2400mhz-khx24c11t3k2-16x.html

Any assistance is appreciated.

Do not get two sets and plan to mix them, it can be problematic, DRAM comes in a variety of number of sticks as they are TESTED to work together and guaranteed to do so- No guarantee when mixing sticks

The Ripjaws Z is a great set and were designed with X79 in mind, another model line to look at is the Tridents, I've been using GSkill nearly exclusively for about 5 years and no failures or dead sticks and I go through about 75+ sets a year
