Memory Compatibility

[Matthew]

I have heard too many stories about memory not working on certain motherboards so i wanted to make sure that i got it right before buying mew memory for my board.

I have an ASRock Extreme6 z77

I really want 16gb of dominator platinum, but will it work, as i have read posts all over the internet saying that certain memory wont work on this mobo.

If it would work, which'd be the best kit to get?

Thanks.

Would you mind showing an example of where you read this?

​As far as I am aware there is absolutely no reason at all why RAM wouldn't work on this board. As long as it's DDR3, it should work perfectly.

and yeah, on the corsair site, they say that it'll work, but i just wanted to be sure.

it should work man. thats one of asrocks top line boards. Ram compatibility with pretty much all motherboards is pretty much near 100% if you look into the max specs and whatnot.

There have been a few boards which dont like certain types of ram but i bet they didnt set timings right or whatnot.

Get the ram :)
