HI,
I just order via Internet a new Intel Core i7 2600K Quad Core Unlocked Hyperthreading Processor LGA1155 3.4GHZ Sandy Bridge 8MB and I want to overclock it as fast as 4.6 GHz 4-Core; 4.9 GHz 1-Core?
I used the info from this article: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/sandy-bridge-overclocking-efficiency,2850-5.html to choose my new components.
But, the Tom's article is using the following G.Skill DDR3 for their overclocking:
G.Skill 2 X 4GB DDR3-2133, F3-17066 CL9D-8GBXLD @ almost 200$ the kit, which I find expensive!
What should be the best RAM (total of 8GB or 16GB) (DDR3-1333 or DDR3-2133) for my new i7 second generation if I want to overclock it at max and not facing a DDR3 bottleneck?
Thank you very much for your help
