So, just a quick question. I've decided on a motherboard, now I can't decide what ram to go in it.

The case this is all going into is a CaseLabs SMA8 Magnum, gun metal grey. Will be done with custom hard tubing. Overall theme is industrial/military/scientific (some sort of strange combo of all three)

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

B matches the board way better

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

B. The upper right seems a little void of color, which the RAM provides.

Don't get both. RAM generally works best in the matched sets it's sold in.

I'd go with option A as the motherboard itself is split into two sections effectively.

The bottom left corner is more grey/gunmetal colored whereas the upper right by the RAM slots is black, since the RAM is by the black portion I'd make the RAM black as well with the white accenting.

I'd say the clear winner is B thus far.

 

I'll wait a few hours.
