Hello Guys ,

I'm building a new pc and i want to ask you something. I'm thinking of Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero or Asus TUF Sabertooth Mark 1 with i5 6600K processor. My quiestion is about the RAM memory because i want low latency high capacity RAM memory. Since i've contacted Asus and they just resend me their link about supported RAM memory but my choice wasnt in their list http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/SABERTOOTH_Z170_MARK1/SABERTOOTH_Z170_MARK_1_DRAM_QVL_20160113.pdf and http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/MAXIMUS_VIII_HERO/M8H_DRAM_QVL_20160411.pdf so im asking for your opinion about the RAM modules : G.Skill RipJaws V DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-3200, CL14-14-14-34 (F4-3200C14D-16GVK) , G.Skill Trident Z DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-3200, CL14-14-14-34 (F4-3200C14D-16GTZ) , Corsair Dominator Platinum DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-2400, CL10-12-12-28 (CMD16GX4M2B2400C10) , Corsair Dominator Platinum DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-2400, CL10-12-12-28 (CMD16GX4M4B2400C10) , G.Skill RipJaws V DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-3600, CL16-16-16-36 (F4-3600C16D-16GVK) , G.Skill Trident Z DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-3600, CL16-16-16-36 (F4-3600C16D-16GTZ) , are they compatible with any of the two motherboards and if they are not can you share your opinion with me with some other modules or other z170 motherboards compatible with the ram modules mentioned above.

Thank you for your answers.

I'd go (and did) with the GSkill Trident Z in 3200/14 (I got a set of the 2x16GB), great sticks. The 2x8GB you are looking at is just as good and may have more OC headroom. They also have their Ripjaws V in the 3200/14 and they pair up well with my Z170 Hero with 6600K (in sig)
