[oadidao]

I want some helping selecting memory for Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R. CPU i7 950 and planning a bit overclocking.

Currently my choices are
Gold XTC 6GB DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800)
Patriot 6GB Viper II Series, Sector 7 Edition PV736G1600ELK DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800).

My choices are limited to MicroCenter. Please help me with a good suggestion. Thanks.

I would recommend Corsair, G.SKILL, Mushkin and Kingston.

^ To confirm I/we either need a part-number or a link.

In addition, you can always cross-reference to Tested DDR from the Mfg's sites by looking for their Configuration link. Just search GA then select from the list your UD3R.

Good Luck!
