Need help with ram ddr3 ram selection

Dylan_Douglas · Nov 28, 2016

Hey guys,
I'm hoping you can help me out. I need help deciding which ram to buy for the new build i am putting together. The motherboard i am going to purchase is a MSI Z97 Gaming 5 and i plan to install a 212 evo. I have it narrowed down to 3 choices. If you have a suggestion that will work too.

Here is the ram i have it narrowed down to:

1. https://jet.com/product/Kingston-HX318C9SRK216-Kingston-HyperX-Savage-Memory-Red-16GB-Kit-2x8GB-DDR3-186/637761177db940cc8d2671b6ff986636

2. https://jet.com/product/Corsair-Vengeance-Pro-16GB-DDR3-Memory-Module/561f469e0abd4cc596f1dae6a2c8ac41

3. https://jet.com/product/Kingston-HyperX-FURY-Memory-Low-Voltage-16GB-Kit-2x8GB-DDR3L-1866MHz-16-GB-2-x-8/28e35bfc4a9d42029297e39aa2883cfa

Thanks in advance!

If you dont already have the CM 212 the M9i cooles just as good for $19 plus doesn't block your RAM with high heat spreaders.

Now you have a set of DD3L that the motherboard doesn't state support for. I suggest the kingston for its lower latency of 9.

elbert :

I already have the 212 evo. I have ram listed that isn't supported by the motherboard i plan to purchase?

elbert · Nov 28, 2016

Yes the DDR3L isn't supported as per the specs.

elbert :

Okay pc part picker listed it as compatible. That is what i was going off of. The Kingston HyperX Savage is compatible with the msi z97 gaming 5 right?

elbert · Nov 28, 2016

Yes its compatible and should work great.
