Need Help Regarding RAM Support

[anujgupta]

hey guys

i m looking for buying a new ram

http://www.gskill.com/products.php?index=378

But i have one doubt in it , my motherboard supports only DDR3 2200(O.C.)*/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1600(O.C.)/1333 ECC, so i was wondering whether it can support that type of RAM or not...

Motherboard : http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1156/P7H55/#specifications
Processor: I7 860 @2.80GHZ

Hi anujgupta and welcome to Tom's Hardware forum.

It will support it. But ...

U should go with 1600MHz and XMP for your mobo and CPU.

There is no need to go higher, u will not see any difference, only in the benchmarks.

That is the RAM I usually recommend : ) I have the low profile Blue. Works great.

It will work just fine with your mobo.
