Z77 Sabertooth - 16GB RAM Options?

[strydersilverton]

Greetings!

I was planning on purchasing the ASUS Z77 Sabertooth this weekend and was assuming I could grab either the G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) or the G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900). However, just for the heck of it I went to ASUS's MOBO compatibility chart and was suprised to find NO options for 2x8GB configurations. Only 16GB options were with 4x4GB chips. Does that sound right?

Can I go with either of the options above (if so, which would you recommend)? If not, anyone have another recommendation for 16GB's?

Many thanks!

Hi,
Check on GSkill for compatible kits:

Thanks for the link! The only one of the options I see is [ RipjawsX] F3-1866C9D-16GXM. So it would appear that is my only choice from the sets I was looking at.

Unless others see an issue with this, it looks like that is the way I'll go. Happens to have a 24-hour sale at newegg, so I'll need to make a decision quick.

Thanks!
