unjusticewin :

Gskill is very renowned for it's memory and since you have a sandy bridge architecture, i'd suggest going for 1600Mhz, any of these should be great : http://www.gskill.com/en/finder?cat=31&series=0&prop_3=1600MHz&prop_4=0&prop_1=0&prop_14=DDR3&prop_2=8GB+%284GBx2%29

I'd suggest this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231314

I've never used that memory before, so i wouldn't recommend it. Here's another option: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148544

With your Z68 and a 2500 (it's the non-K model correct?) I'd look at the RipJaws X or Sniper lines from GSkill in 1600/9 or a little better performance wise the 1600/8 like

Klevv is a newer DRAM maker, and though haven't tried them - the sticks look solid, if you try should be fine, and let us know how you like them

ya i do know from expericne ripjaw line is one of the best lines reliable fast and last long but atm was trying to find the best bang for my $

Givew the Klevv a try, as mentioned haven't heard anything bad about them (other than price on their higher end sets

)
