Normally, from what I understand, you won't really notice a difference in RAM speeds in the real world. I mean, that is if you're OCing the RAM and not buying a stock 2133 RAM. If you are buying a stock 2133 RAM, you're probably over-paying for not much more performance and I would go with 1600 or 1866.
The mobo in your sig? Supports it essentially, you will just have to raise the multiplier.

He did state he was benchmarking...which is where you would want that kind of ram (or a lot faster), otherwise, I absolutely agree.

I did not know you could OC your RAM too. I thought you had to buy your speed. I have a lot to learn I know. I am just trying to get the hardware ironed out first.

Earthdog thanks for the reply. I will get the 2133 RAM for benching like you say.The mobo in your sig? Supports it essentially, you will just have to raise the multiplier.

Yea, for some reason I missed that you were benching, my apologies. But yea, you can bench RAM, GPU, and CPU and possibly more if I'm missing anything. Though I don't know what else you would bench, fan RPMS?
