Hey guys,

I new to these forums and new at pc building. I'm building a gaming pc.

Just a few specs to give you an idea of my build:

Intel 4790k
Asus 7 hero motheboard
Geforce Gtx 770
Windows 8.1 64 bit
SG 1tb hard drive
Samsung Ssd
Corsair 750d
Ram:?

I'm looking for ram that will work well with Asus maximus 7 hero mobo.

I'm only going to get 2x4gb or 1x8gb sticks right now, then plan to upgrade in the future. I was looking into the ram in the link what do you guys think? 2x4 or 1x8? And do you guys have any other suggestions that I should check out? Also suggestions for new time builders? Thanks in advance!

1.65 is perfectly fine and basically required for higher freq sticks, Intel even certifies sets at 1.6 and 1.65 - it's perfectly safe. The 1.5 recommendation is for the stock recommended 1600 base freq sticks (and even then, Intel certifies numerous 1.65 1600 sets)
