Best RAM for i7 950

[lowjack989]

I was wondering, ....What is the best RAM for the i7 950 @ stock speed on an Intel DX58SO MOBO? The machine is going to be used for general office use.

im running ddr3 1600MHz with my i7 950 but. its only like 1-3% faster than ddr3 1333 would be, depending on application. anything over ddr3 1600 will only increase perfomance by 1-2 more percent.

this is mostly due to it being triple channel. its already so fast its hard to improve on. other things become the bottleneck.
