This is the hardware spec I am anticipating building
This is for High end cpu intensive gaming
This rig will be my first attempt at overclocking.
The bit i am unsure off, is the optimal memory speed/make for this rig
I will be installing 16gb into it
So from the QVL linked below, what would be your recommendations for the optimal ram ?

SPEC
_____________________________________________________
CPU: I7 Haswell 4770k
CPU Cooling: Corsair H100i
M/B: Asus Z87-PRO (Socket 1150)
O/S Drive: Samsung 840 Series Pro 128GB
Primary Game drive: Samsung 256GB SSD 840 PRO
Backup Drive: WD 2TB
GPU: Asus GTX 770 Nvidia GeForce DirectCU II OC 2GB
PSU: Corsair CP-9020056-UK RM Series RM850 80 Plus Gold 850W ATX/EPS
Case:Corsair Graphite 600TM Midi Tower
(I'm looking for 2 to 3 years service from this rig, so will not be overclocking to the max. From what I am reading, a minimal overclock will take it from 3.5 to 4.2Mhz
Any help will be greatly appreciated
