Hello all, I just finished building my new rig, http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Andromendous/saved/B2zp99
I have not purchased the GPU or the SSD YET. and I have the 750W psu not the 850.
anyway. I went ahead and got the stick of 4GB G. Skills RAM, but I noticed it is not in the list of Certified DIMMS in my Asus Handbook.
I saw a youtube video that said to get full dual channel performance I need a set that is made for dual channel. Is this true?
This ram ----> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231548
Is not in the list of "certified DIMMS" but is the best I can find. it has timings of 8-8-8 Do you think I would have any issues? Surly just because it is not in the list, doesnt mean they wont work. Surly they cant test EVERY stick of ram out there.
This ram ----> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211810&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=
IS on the list but has 9-9-9-24 timing and is Single sided.
One last thing, and I thank you if you made it this far.
The whole single sided/dual sided thing confuses me. then theres "rankings" some have their opinions on what matter.
What really matters? whats the best choice?
EDIT: I also just noticed that there is not one single stick of RAM in the list that has timings lower than 9-9-9. maybe my MB doesnt support anything lower?
Thank for any help.

As mentioned above the QVLs are simply DRAM they have in their lab/shop...there's way too many sets of DRAM out there to even try testing them all (if they could even get them all)
