DDR3 Manufacturer/Timing Question

Today I'm going to go to Microcenter and pick up my i5 and motherboard, the last piece of the puzzle will be memory. My issue is that Microcenter doesn't carry G.Skill memory, which is what I usually use. I could order it online and wait a few days to get it, or I could pick up some of the memory they carry and build my system today.

At the egg, they have this set of G.Skill memory:

Microcenter has the following:

The two I was looking at were:
OCZ: http://www.microcenter.com/single_ [...] id=0317775
Corsair: http://www.microcenter.com/single_ [...] id=0289282

Not sure how reliable the rebates are, so take that into account.

What would the gurus here recommend?

Hi Rocky,

I'll be picking up the Asus P7P55D standard version. I'm not sure what their compat list looks like but I'll try and find it now.

Thanks

The RAM on that board comes in trips instead of pairs - so most do list 3 x 1GB and 3 x2GB sets. The OCZ Gold have the better timings so if you are sure that one is on the list with that manufacturer number I would suggest going with 3 x 2 GB of it. Look for the set of three and make sure those numbers match.
