Go with the gskill, glad to see you didnt settle on the samsung disgust-o-ram. Sure, some people say that one guy once somewhere in his basement got them to 2133, but I always prefer to have looks with performance too (I- like many of you out there- have a clear case window)
post #49 of 53
unlucky they went out of stock..
but still the G.Skill ram is nice and low voltage too.. plus i think it will look quite nice in the slots with the bluey color and the blue chipset heatsinks.. smile.gif

tho black ram in black slots and a dark grey mobo would like nice too but i think you cant go wrong with those G.Skills smile.gif
