asus p7h55-m si motherboard compatabilitys of ram 8 gigs

Solution
Don't know which cpu so look for 1600mhz@9-9-9-27->1.5V,if you can find it with cas8 would that be nice too.
For instance,

maybe with a overclocked cpu could you use higher spec ram,like 1866/2133mhz.The more expensive ones @cas8 would be nice with the ripjaws X as most expensive the best being at 1.5V..

Safest and fastest for that is probably 1600mhz so keep it at that.I think you have the i5 650 which has an igp (integrated graphics processor),the following comes from the specs at asus for your motherboard,

To reach DDR3 2200 MHz, you are required to use with Intel Core i7/Core i5 CPU without iGPU and install a discrete graphics card. When using Intel Core i5/Core i3/ Pentium CPU with iGPU,the maximum memory speed supported is 1600+ MHz

Like i said,get,if you can,something like those blue ripjaws X.
