The EVGA RAM isn't even posted on EVGA's website.  EVGA RAM is exclusive to MicroCenter, where I built my PC.  They told me that it is similar to GSkills RAM.  Anyways, I have my CPU overclocked to 3.95GHz and my RAM underclocked at 2933MHz.  My ram timings are 15-17-17-35.

 

A word of advice to anybody building this same rig:

Whenever you first install Windows it may crash repeatedly until you finish updating Windows.  I thought this might have been because of my RAM.  I am still not certain if it is or not.  I booted it in safe mode and updated windows there.  Even in safe mode it was still randomly Blue Screening with a  CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT error.  This is what initially had me thinking that the RAM was to blame.  After the windows update FINALLY completed (2 days later and constantly interrupted with blue screens) the system stabilized.

People gawk at my Razer Stealth and wonder how the hell I play XCOM 2 on it. The truth of the matter is that anybody can stream games to their laptop.  I only wish that mine was as special as people think it is.

Looks good! I would def. buy different RAM as it is a BSOD associated with hardware (source: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-update/clockwatchdogtimeout-error/33b46641-fc90-45d9-8027-b834f44cfd03?auth=1)

 

But if the system is fine now, just ignore it :P.

I have a 16GB kit of GSKILLS ripjaw 2400MHz that I ordered before the windows update finished.  I am about to return it, but maybe I should keep it around just in case.
