Make sure to get 2 modules , so that the ram runs in dual channel mode.

VanillaSprinkles · Feb 6, 2014

Seriously dude i've seen you on every single thread. Like what the heck

FriedSalmon · Feb 6, 2014

Yes, may I ask why you're opting to get a sandy bridge cpu over haswell? Or do you already have it?

sciophobiaranger · Feb 6, 2014

FriedSalmon :

Haswell went over my budget and I have heard it is not as good as the 3570k for overclocking. I also don't feel like waiting for another check in order to get the haswell. I already have the 3570k anyway. Oh well, I am not too worried about getting haswell anyway.

Already have two, they're leftovers from my last build (see my signature). I just hope they work because people on NewEgg complained about the ram compatibility.

VanillaSprinkles :

He's a moderator and an expert in these fields, lol.

They should work OK, if looking for new DRAM and going to OC (sounds like it) would look to 1866/9 or 2133/9 sticks

Tradesman1 :

Yeah, I may overclock my ram in the future. But earlier I was responding the guy who asked why I was going IB over Haswell, and I mentioned something about the CPU overclocking. Thanks for the response. I just wanted to double check before ordering this MB.

3570K is great, I have mine at 4.7 and it runs 24/7

Tradesman1 :

What cooling do you use? And do you think this a good motherboard to order/use? I ask this because a lot of people I talk to say they've never heard of ASrock, haha. I was going to get the Gigabyte equivalent but it was out of stock on NewEgg (GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-D3H).

Tradesman1 · Feb 7, 2014

No that's a lousy mobo ... LOL .... that's what I've got, picked it up initially because I could get it prior to the release and same with my 3570K, to be honest, I figured I would trade it out for a ROG mobo (my plans anyway), even after building numerous ROG 1155s, never saw a need to go away from the EX4, it turned out (and is) the best selling 1155 IB mobo out there and is the best rated....

Tradesman1 :

Haha, you do not like that Gigabyte? Weird I saw it pop up a few times. Well, I have just ordered the Extreme 4 on Friday and hoped I did not waste my $130. Thanks for the reply.

Tradesman1 · Feb 9, 2014

Gigabyte? If referring to my mention of the ROG, that's the Asus Republic Of Gamers mobos, was originally figuring I'd get one of theirs, (and I love their mobos) but never found a need, I did builds with their various ROG mobos using P67, Z68 and the Z77 chipsets and the Rock's EX 4 for my purposes was equal to or better so never bought one

sciophobiaranger · Feb 9, 2014

Tradesman1 :

Nah, I thought you were calling the Gigabyte a lousy motherboard. I was a little worried because I just bought the ASROCK Extreme 4 after people said my RAM could work with it. I plan to overclock once I get the Noctua cooler.

Tradesman1 · Feb 9, 2014

Oh no, GB is on my Short list, I only build on Asus, the Rock and GB....

sciophobiaranger · Feb 11, 2014

Tradesman1 :

Sounds good. MSI isn't bad either. I got an ASRock Extreme 4 today for my I5. Hope it goes well after I put it together.

Tradesman1 · Feb 11, 2014

Let us know how it goes!

sciophobiaranger · Feb 13, 2014

Tradesman1 :

Okay, I put it in yesterday. I love it! The motherboard works great, and I love how it has a lot of options to it. A lot better than my previous motherboard. Not only that, but the i5 3570k is amazing. Immediately I see better performance. Faster boot times, applications load faster, games load and run faster. Overall, I am impressed. The motherboard is fairly easy to use after a couple minutes exploring its Bios. I am glad I got these parts, worth the money. Even though I do not have an aftermarket cooler (I plan to get the Noctua NH-D14), I am happy with my purchase. The performance is amazing. So yes, all in all it went well.

Glad to hear, should keep you happy for a long time
