Not sure if it'll work..

Go to solution Solved by Archangel1994,

A. Devil's Canyon is 4th gen

B. That's just a recommendation based on when the RAM was released. You do not have to worry about that at all on good RAM like Corsair Vengeance, G.skill ares/ripjaws/trident, etc.

I'm about to order my parts for my new pc, and I looked at the RAM to see if it was in stock, it was but I also saw that it was compatible with Intel 3rd and 4th gen processors.. Does this mean a Devil's Canyon CPU won't work with this ram?

 

Memory: Corsair Vengeance pro 16gb 2x8 DDR3-2133 

CMY16GX3M2A2133C11R

CPU: Intel i7-4790k Devil's Canyon 4.00GHz

 

Any advice is appreciated :) thanks

Having a 980 is like having a Ferrari... Looks Sexy, Performs Sexy and will get you laid...... Oh wait... Its a GPU...

We can dream I guess :/

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861
