Corsair Vengeance, Kingston Beast, G-skill... at that config i recommend 8 gb for now, and if you feel the need, 8 more later.

Codename: HighFlyer, specs:  CPU: i5 2500k cooled by a H70ish(2 rad)   Mobo: MSI MPower Z77   GPUs: Gigabyte GTX 660 OC 1150 MHZ core, 3150 memory both   RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16G @1600mhz   SSD: ADATA Premier Pro sx900 / HDD Seagate Barracuda 1TB/Samsung 1TB   Power supply: Corsair RM650 80+ Gold   Case Corsair Carbide 500R   5.4 ghz achieved on the good old 2500k, may it rest in peace. Current daily OC is 4.8 @1.41 v

Check out the G.Skill sniper. I got it myself and it's pretty cheap, looks ok, and works perfectly :)

Dominators. Things of beauty

Why do i always get blue screens? Why not a red one for a change?

Crucial, Patriot and Mushkin are usually the best looking ones.

 

If the coam shaped fake poser aircooling-blocking heatsinks from mainstream brands isn't your thing. Which it shouldn't be.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

To be honest the speed of ram 1333mhz lowest doesnt really matter much any more and unless you were looking for it you most likely wouldnt see the difference apart from having bragging rights. Get the cheapest ram from a notable company which 8gb at least 1333mhz and is ddr3.

Listen if you care.

you only feel the 1600mhz+ when u are running Ultra high games settings  or 3d rendering / editing videos .... and u want an ultimate overclock score .. and so on!.. i cant say .. daominators (platinum) .. yess thy look excellence :o  B)  :rolleyes: .. but when u get the price tag  :blink: ...    the thing is .. every build/ builder has his own opinion about ram and much money are you willing to spend on looks and performance... this is my opinion ^_^
