Cpu : Fx-6300
Mobo : Asus M5A97 R2.0

Corsair Vengeance 4GB PC1600 DDR3
Kingston HyperX Fury 4GB PC1866 DDR3

The HyperX is cas 10 - http://www.kingston.com/en/hyperx/memory/fury

The Vengeance is cas 9 - http://www.corsair.com/en/vengeance-4gb-single-module-ddr3-memory-kit-cmz4gx3m1a1600c9

So they are roughly the same. But the Hyper X will overclock to 1866 easy .

So - the Hyper X

ty :3
wait i need to overclock to get 1866?

both the rams are compatible for your mobo,

the kingston is a little faster than the vengeance.

suggestion vengeance are pretty good, if u have a budget issue then u can stick to vengeance.

Yes. But per http://media.kingston.com/pdfs/HyperX_FURY_EN.pdf it uses "Automatic Overclcoking" - usually by enabling XMP in bios.

is it still k if i dont overclock
becuz i dont really want to overclock anything XD

Then they will just run at 1333.

Your choice of motherboard support up to 2133 MHz ram, so yes, both are compatible for your motherboard.

But you will need 2 piece of same size ram in order to activate dual channel (almost 2x ram performance).

They both priced around US$30 in newegg.

If newegg are within your area, better get directly 2x4Gb. You will not need to upgrade until your FX-6300 last breath and you will have the benefit of using it from now. This is the cheapest and seem reliable since there a lot of user giving full mark. Brand also recognizeable.

CORSAIR Vengeance LP 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Low Profile Desktop Memory Model CML8GX3M2A1600C9
$48.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233186

If you have the money, better buy one that maxed out your motherboard and cpu ability, such as

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) Desktop Memory Model F3-2133C9D-8GXL
$59.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231689

Choose between those 2 above. If other said 8Gb is unnecessary, ignore them. More and more game need 8Gb for better performance. If you delay the purchase of ram, the DDR3 will be replaced by next generation which make DDR3 become more expensive (such as DDR2 and DDR1 prices now). Ram has very long lifetime and warranty.

Hope this help

No they won't run at 1333, the Fury operate off PnP, and automatically set themselves up to the highest data rate they can run at, with this combo likely 1866, maybe only 1600.

And as to the earlier remark, NO, they don't utilize XMP, they work off PnP - two totally different things

Tradesman1 · Jun 10, 2015

With a 6300, realistically 1866 will be the tops you can run without OCing the CPU, so 2133 is out if not OCing, it's the CPU (specifically the CPUs MC (memory controller) that determines what data rate you can run at (yes the mobo has to support it, but it's not the primary factor as portrayed above)

Tradesman1 :

So If I Install "Kingston HyperX Fury PC1866 DDR3" It Will Automatically Run At 1866 Without Go Into Bios?
And If I Want To Install Another Same Ram. Will Both Ram Run At 1866?

Cuz From What I Read Both Ram Support Ram 1866MHz Correct Me If Im Wrong U Are The Pro Here

Tradesman1 · Jun 10, 2015

The Hyper X Fury will set themselves to run at the highest they can automatically...with a 6300, it will be 1600 or 1866 and yes without going into the BIOS. Mixing DRAM - even of the same exact model has no guarantees of even playing together. It's best to get the full amount of DRAM you want/need in a single package

JunkFoodz · Jun 10, 2015

So If I Want To Buy Ram For My PC Its Better To Buy 1 Stick 8GB HyperX Fury Or 2 Sticks 4GB HyperX Fury In A Single Package

Sry But I Need To Make Sure This All Cuz I Have Paranoid Personality

And Sry About My English

Tradesman1 · Jun 10, 2015

For 8GB I'd go the 2x4GB to get and utilize dual channel mode which can provide up to a 10-15% performance gain over single stick/single channell

Thank you Very Much!!!
