Hey guys! I have built this system almost 2 years ago; in the past, the first RAM stick that I have purchase was not on the "supported list" of my mobo. As a result, the ram was very unstable (causing my system to go blue screen each time.) I have tried adjusting the RAM timings/voltage etc. ( with the help of some good people here) but I failed to do so because of the "bad" RAM settings of my mobo. In the end, I have just purchased a RAM set that was on the "supported list" of my mobo; however, I was not pleased of its speed (1600) since I am using an APU. Apparently, this is the only RAM pack that is available on the "supported ram list" of my mobo (others were either discontinued/out of stock).

RIght now, I really want to upgrade my RAM (looking for 8GB.) As for the speed it self, I dont really care much if its 1600 anymore since I am planning to get a dedicated GPU soon; I just want to have a stable/compatible RAM with bigger memory with my mobo. How can I get the best compatible RAM for my system? my mother board is the "a55md2 biostar" http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=620#dl. Thank you very much in advance!
