i have: asus striker ll extreme nforce 790i ultra sli
intel core 2 quad Q9770 3.2ghz 1600mhz FSB
2 xfx gforce 9800 GTX 512MB 2 way sli ready

My question is... I want 4gb ram. at 1600Mhz... can you tell me the right model
in order that support from my system???

Thank you!!!
 
Umm...any DDR3 1600 should work, although if the timings are diffrent from what you currently have, there could be a few issues...

What type (and how many sticks) of RAM do you currently have? I try not to mix-and-match RAM when I can, although it "usually" isn't a problem.

Also,

Just make sure that whatever clock multiplier you are using matches what you are trying to achieve (i.e. you need a FSB freq of 800MHz with a clock multiplier of 4). That means you would still achieve 3.2 GHZ with the DDR 1600 working properly (2 X 800MHz).
