Hello,

I'm going to be attempting my 1st PC build and I have narrowed down all of the components except the RAM. I was hoping someone could recommend some reasonably priced RAM that is compatible with the Gigabyte motherboard. Here is the complete configuration:

Mother board: GA-890FXA-UD5

CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz

CPU Cooler: Zalman 9700

Video Card: Sapphire HD 6870

Case: Cooler Master HAF932 Full Tower ATX

Power Supply: Corsair 850-TX

Hard Disk Drive: HITACHI Deskstar 7K3000 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

CD/DVD: LG Black 24X DVD & CD Burner

My primary usage would be the following:

1) Adobe applications - CS4 suite (Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator)
2) Web browsing
3) E-mail
4) Gaming - 1st person shooters

If anyone has any suggestions that don't drastically increase the cost of this build it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Rob
