I'm building a new computer at the moment. It's going to be running on the new Z87 chiset with a 4770K etc etc...
I'm deciding on the RAM at the moment and I need a few suggestions.
I've decided I want to go with Corsair's line of memory. I had my eyes set on the Corsair Dominator Platinums 2133mhz 8gb kit. I was just about to pull the trigger on that and then I saw the new Vengeance Pros get announced and that has prompted me to reconsider everything.
Firstly, I want this computer to last at least 2-3 years at least. Will 8GB of RAM be enough? I'm not a professional graphics designer or anything I'm simply an enthusiast and a big gamer. Secondly, what speed of RAM should I go for? I'm straying away from 1600 at the moment, I want 2000mhz+ as I read that Haswell's controller can go up to 3000+? Finally, cost aside, what would be the difference between the Dominator Platinums and Vengeance Pros and which one is the superior product? I live in Australia so the Vengeance Pros will still take a while to become widely available so should I wait a bit longer?
If anyone has had experience with the Dominator Platinums, would you recommend it at all?
Thanks!!
