I am planning to upgrade my RAM but I unfortunately the RAM my computer uses is no longer on sale. Can someone please help me find a more compatible RAM for my motherboard that will run well with my existing RAM.

Here is the RAM I have now : G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000 (PC3 16000) Desktop Memory Model F3-16000CL9D-4GBRH

Here is the motherboard : ASUS P7P55D PRO LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel Motherboard

The RAM and motherboard came in a combo package when I got it. I only found a few people selling it at Europe Amazon website but I live in the US and they are more expansive with shipping and everything.

Nearly every RAM is the same... Speed, Timings, AND Voltage are nearly the same on most RAMs... The price are different due to Name Brands and Quality build... Think of it as PSU but with Timings.... Lower Timing is better so the ram you just posted above me should works just fine without any problem but i dont think you can OC it to 2200MHz... I bought Kingston Hyper X Genesis 2x2GB 1800MHz 9-9-9-24 for an x58 setup and I OC it to 2009MHz with 9-10-9-24 but IDK if yours ganna be able to OC to 2200MHz but you dont really need to lol... MAX Memory speed is based on CPU+MoBo, my CPU is OC to 3.8 awhile my MoBo only support Max 1866MHz but it true max was 2000MHz... It should last you like at least 2 year to around 3 years or so, So it will fail if use like everyday...
