I am currently building my first PC and I am up to the stage to choose which RAM I would like...
I have been looking at two RAM kits which I cannot choose between:
- CORSAIR Vengeance Pro 16GB 1866Mhz (2 x 8GB) CMY16GX3M2A1866C9R
- G.SKILL Trident X Series 16GB 1866Mhz (2 x 8GB) F3-1866C8D-16GTX
I like the look of the Vengeance Pro more than the G.Skill but the G.Skill is a little cheaper here in New Zealand and has a lover CAS Latency (CL8 instead of CL9 on the Corsair).
I dont really care for the prices that much. I just need other peoples opinion on the two or if there is any better RAM I should look into.
I am going for a red & black theme for my system and here are the specs so far on the build:
Corsair Carbide Series® Air 540
Corsair RM650 650 Watt PSU
Asus ROG MAXIMUS VII HERO
Intel Devil's Canyon Core i5 4690K
Corsair Hydro Series™ H100i
Samsung 850 PRO SERIES 256GB SSD
Western Digital BLACK SERIES WD3003FZEX 3TB
I Currently have a Asus GTX 660Ti OC but I will soon upgrade to the GTX 880 when it arrives...
Thanks for any help you can give me
