RAM for i5-760 build, advice appreciated

[kureme]

I'm putting together a new system and need help choosing the ram. The mobo is ASUS P7P55D-E Pro.

I'm looking for some good 4gb ram and here is what I have come up with:

I would go with the G.SKILL ECO's or this set... G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL7D-4GBRM

I have a few questions.

Would the lower latency of the Mushkin Redline be enough to offset the voltage difference of the G.Skill Eco? There are good reviews for both ram.

Is the higher voltage going to be an issue with the i5-760? I seem to see the general consensus to be to go with the lower voltage ram.

On that subject, which of the two low voltage ram would be better? Mushkin also has a low voltage Blackline so GSkill Eco isn't the only choice.

 

[tecmo34]

1) Yes... Lower latency is better than lower voltage.

2) As long as the voltage is below 1.65V, it doesn't matter.

3) I would go with the G.SKILL ECO's over the Mushkin set. They were the "first" with the low voltage memory and they are on the QVL for that motherboard.

Alright, then between the Mushkin Redline and the G.Skill Eco, which one is the better one? and which one is the better deal of the two?

Which would to get?

 

[tecmo34]

I would go with the G.SKILL ECO... myself. The price difference will out way the slight performance increase between the two.
