Quick compatibility question

[Am33r]

Will the http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-207-GI fit with http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-181-OC&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1517 . I'm pretty sure it does but just need some reassurance. I plan to put an i5 750 processor with the motherboard I linked. Not too sure about what RAM I should buy. Maybe you guys could recommend me some? Have a budget of 100 quid on the RAM.

Any help is greatly appreciate

Many thanks

Your chosen RAM has a 1600MHz frequency which is not seem to be supported by your chosen MoBo (only 800, 1066, 1333, 2200). Choose RAM from this list:
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/FileList/MemorySupport/mb_memory_ga-p55-us3l.pdf

This is a RAM list for the P55-US3L MoBo, the RAM that you mentioned does not appear there.

I had a look at that earlier today. Some of the RAM on that pdf had Bus Clock rates of 1600mhz. Are you sure its not supported?

For some strange reason most of the sites that advertise the GA-P55-US3L MoBo omit the 1600MHz, but the frequencies below and above it (1333 and 2200) are supported. I looked further into this subject and found that the 1600MHz (or PC3-12800) IS supported by the GA-P55-US3L.
