Ram compatibility

[r912525]

Hello im upgrading my system so i bought a
3930k processor
p9x79 pro motherboard
cpu fan (still looking for a good compatible one)

I currently have an ampx 8 gigs of ram and i dont know if it will work. If it does i would rather just keep it but if not I need ram that adds up to at least 8 gigs of ddr3 and is compatible with the p9x79 pro. I want something that is really good for gaming but not something that is worth way less than its sold for. I dont know whether more sticks is good or bad but i know I would rather keep it at $200 or less but i know quality is key for me.

Try your memory that you have when you get the rest of the system. If it works, then problem solved. If not, then look into the options that scout_03 suggested.
