either is fine with that motherboard, it supports up to 3800Mhz aparently

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)

#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.

Most companies have a list of supported memory for each board on the support page for the specific board in question, check there. I mean most mainstream memory from popular brands is compatible with most boards so you probably wont have an issue, but it pays to double check.

Usually their website is a good start. Go to the page for your board and look for compatibility, tech specs, or support.
