Memory suggestions for haswell?

[Artem]

Had to snag me up the 4770k and a motherboard for my next build as soon as it was available and before it went out of stock like the 780 i'm still waiting for :) I love my z77a-gd55 paired with my 3770k so thats why I went with that particular motherboard. Its going to be a black and red build in an arc midi r2, as suggested by the watercooling guys, and watercooled. I heard that haswell has some amazing memory capabilities and wanted insight from somebody that know their memory as to what memory to get. My only requirements are that it be no slower than 2133, cas 9 or below latencies, in the range of 150 dollars, and preferable red since the build is going to be black and red. Please help a brother out:) If there's something better than what I specified, please let me know.So far this is what iv been looking at, let me know why or why not these are good options.

In my current build, i'm having random crashes while rendering something in solidworks or keyshot. But they go away if I turn off my xmp and have the memory run at 1600 and 1.5v. I don't want that issue again, that's why i'm trying to consult with people that know what they're doing.

Why do you need the extra RAM speed? It really won't help you that much, other than if you are running an APU, and you aren't. I would just say go for some Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz and put the extra money towards something else.

I read a review somewhere that haswell benefits from higher ram speeds, and if tweaked properly, can reduce micro stuttering in games which is really annoying. I also read that faster ram wouldnt affect fps in games but would affect long render times which I often do. I don't know how that would work, but was hoping someone of you guys would know more about that. If that is false, feel free to give you your suggestions:)

I've been desperately trying to figure this one out too as I've heard similar things.  I think with the very limited reviews/benchmarks thus far it'll be way too hard to determine what RAM to go with for your "end-game" build (I'm in the same boat, I'm still rockin' a 920). I'm pretty sure it's a safe bet that if you're overclocking you'd want higher frequency RAM, but until we get some charts I'm definitely going to wait it out.  

 

If anyone's got any information on this please do share!

I'm also for higher memory clocks and not only because benefits on Haswell and games. I've seen that atleast on charts higher mem clocks get better benchmark scores. Someone who has access on one manufacturers two mems running different clocks should verify this. And not using small steps like from 1333MHz to 1600MHz, more likely from 1333 to something between 2133-2400. My second arqument is that if I need more memory in future (from 8gigs to 16gigs), higher clock speeds are cheaper and easier to get than lower. I've seen this happening with DDR2 memory.
