ddr3 to replace this

Solution


Since your mobo can support 2400hz, you can go for the corsair dominator platinum? Very high performing, can overclock well, looks very good, roughly 100 pounds / 150 dollars for 8gb

EDIT: It seems that at 2400hz, the board consideres it overclocked so you may have to tune it yourself, which sounds kinda hard so I would recommend the Avexir brand, they have RAM clocked at 1600hz and looks very good, here's a link to one of them and what you can expect...

Would they run at 2133 on my pc ? Would they make my pc much faster ?
 


Yeah but you would have to tweak stuff with your Ram etc. so it's quite hard to do, I'd recommend you just go for the same frequency of Ram as you have now

Im running 8 x 4gb crucail technology bls4g3d1609d xmp 1.50v clk: 800.0mhz ddr3 sdram pc3-12800 will they give me better performance than these ?
 


yes, you have 32gb though.. so you should get 4 of the kits I linked you, the kits you have now run at a speed of 800hz, the ones I sent you run at a speed of 1600hz, 2x as fast

EDIT: wait, how much gb of RAM do you want?

Well iv got 8 slots so ill fill them
 


8 RAM slots? What mobo is that? because these are 2x4 kits, so if you wanted to have 32GB, you would need 4 x 8gb kits, but you have 8 slots for RAM so that won't be a problem

Yes I will replace them with corsair , will I notice the speed tho ?
 


okay, just make sure they're all the same speed, and yes, during rendering and other tasks that require a lot of RAM

Iv got 2x msi r7970 what would you recommend ? Is my system bottle necking with ddr3 at 800mhz
 


At that speed maybe, I mean the lowest speed for gaming nowadays is 1600hz, so a new RAM set will improve your system entirely, not just in gaming but everyday use, if you have more money I'd suggest getting a new gpu maybe? because it seems your gpu is no longer being manufactured, but if you feel that your gpus are doing fine, then get new RAM and see if it improves your gaming performance

When I go to bios and iv oc it shows 1333 for my ram how can that be
 
I don't know.. some people on the forums have reported that problem as well..
Is this your RAM? http://www.pcgameware.co.uk/reviews/memory-ram/crucial-ballistix-tactical-tracer-8gb/

But anyways.. if you get new RAM, 8gb would be sufficient for playing any game, unless you render vids, then 16gb would be better, you could upgrade your gpu unless you're satisfied with the gpu's peformance
