I need help finding compatible memory for GIGABYTE GA-P45T-ES3G Motherboard
I want to realize the full 16Gb memory potential of the board under 64 bit Windows 7 configuration. There are 4 memory slots on this board with 1600/1333/1066/800MHz options. Thanks in advance.
 
Solution
Check the qvl for your board on it's webpage. I've had good luck with gskill. It's around $50 for 8 gb of 1333, but I would get 1600 for an extra $5-8.

I would certainly want 1600 speed but after placing my question here on this forum, I received a response from the Gigabyte Technology website and they recommend nothing greater than 1333 speed for the GA-P45T-ES3G MB. I believe they are being cautious. What do you think? The specs for the MB include 1600 Mgh as an option.

Gigabyte's response: "Please use all of the same type of memory of 1333 or slower on this board"
