Looking for dual channel 8GB DDR3 for best value price

Cozzy258 · Apr 4, 2015

I'm currently running a dell optiplex 790 SFF and I have upgraded to 64bit in preparation for this (so that I'm not buying RAM that my computer can't use) but now more than ever I am noticing the performance deductions of having 4GB RAm as I am big into having , music, chrome,Skype, utorrent(linux distros so they're on all the time) , dropbox,box,display fusion as well as light games open simultaneously and I want to upgrade to 8GB current motherboard only supports up to that
what Ram would be reccomended to be at the best pricepoint(have a dedicated graphics card so speed doesn't matter too much unlike with APU's)

Given the Dell Tech Guide (pg 13) states only DDR3-1333 RAM, I'd recommend this 8GB (2x4GB) G.Skill DDR3-1333 kit.

g.skill ddr3-1333mhz 8GB GB dealer, type this in google. i most ly just get danish dealers but i found 3 diffrent places in denmark that all got them in sstock, so im 100% there are tons of them around diffrent dealerships in the uk.

In the UK, I'd probably recommend this 8GB 2x5GB G-Skill DDR3-1333 RAM. If you want to find something else, I generally just look on UK PCPartPicker.

Shouldn't anything higher than DDR3-1333 still work? Would be suprised if DDR3-1866 wouldn't work as DDR3-1333.

Wolfshadw :

Thanks Used PCpartpicker and found a Amazon link so I know it's a trustworthy site

I would think, under normal circumstances, that higher speed RAM would clock down, but this being a Dell, I prefer to keep it within their stated specifications.
