Hi guys,
I'm looking to buy some RAM soon, finally upgrading from 4gb to 8gb and was probably going to get this 8gb kit here:
http://www.centrecom.com.au/kingston-kvr13n9s8k28-8gb-2x4gb-1333mhz-ddr3
It's just standard Kingston RAM.
1. I was wondering if there would be any benefit in going for the Kingston Hyper-X brand or the G-Skill Ripjaws or something like that?
2. Also I'd like to know if there is any noticeable difference between 1333mhz, 1600mhz and 2133mhz say in gaming or anything. The most demanding game I play is probably BF4, would there be a difference in that game between 1333 and 2133?
3. I also can't tell what speeds exactly my motherboard supports. It's an Asus P7H55-M Pro (yeah it's old) and the box says it supports 1066, 1333 and 2133 (OC), but the manual has a list of supported 1600 modules. But it's hard to tell if it's specific to this motherboard or not.
4. Also, does the 2133 (OC) part mean that I can not buy sticks that are rated at 2133 but I could overclock a lower speed stick to 2133?
I think I'd rather save myself the headache and go for the 1333mhz RAM but it's all kinda confusing and I'd like to know first. So if anyone can provide some info on all this, I would really appreciate it. Sorry for so many questions, but thanks for your time.
