I want to upgrade my ram, but to what?

[OCnewbee]

Hello RAM Guru's,

Current setup is a AMD 1090T AM3 Hex Core CPU, Mobo is a Gigabyte 890 FXA-UD5 with 8gb of
G.Skill RIPJAW series:
DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)
Timing 7-7-7-21
Cas Latency 7
Voltage 1.5V


Mobo can take these type of RAM: DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1866/1600/1333/1066

Current RAM is not modified
I had 16gb but two sticks are faulty and wont let the PC boot to windows. I am looking to upgrade all four stick but to what?

I was think of the G.SKILL RipJaw 8gb 2x4gb
DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
Cas Latency: 9
Timing 9-9-9-24-2N
as Latency 9
Voltage 1.5V
ECC: No
Unbuffered

I would get four new stick to replace all my RAM, not going to combine the different ram.

WHat are your thoughts? Should I stick with a CAS of 7 I had the system OC'ed to 4.1 stable but went back to stock clock. I might OC it once again.

Thanks

Sevan

Ddr3 1600mhz. Anything faster yields little to no gains.

I'm going to surprise all the experts here and say something I've kept completely to myself until this very moment: get Samsung or no-heatsink Crucial.

At the very least, get a stick of that Samsung for testing purposes because it's almost never the culprit when there's a mysterious problem.
