Hello,
maybe someone here can help me with this problem:
I plan to replace my current AMD Phenom II 965 System with a Haswell System (i5 4670k). My plan is not only to overclock the CPU but also increase the frequencies which are important for the memory bandwidth (Ring bus frequency, memory frequency, etc.) as far as possible.
On my AMD Platform I used Kingston Hyper X CL8 DDR3-2000 RAM which used Elpida Hyper MGH-E/MNH-E chips and could run very nice timings + good frequencies. I have read that this RAM does not work so good on todays Intel Platforms (Sandy-Bridge, Haswell, etc.). Furthermore I only have 2x2 GB. Therefore I plan to get new RAM as well.
Which RAM would you recommend if one not only plans to overclock the CPU but also the memory?
I usually also keep an eye on a good price/performance-ratio but I anyway would like to have a good replacement for the memory which is in place in my current system since the games which I usually play require a high memory bandwidth (Arma 2/DayZ, Arma 3).
Do you have any advice regarding memory with a good price/performance ratio for haswell and which is overclockable?
In another board they recommend the following memory kit's:
Teamgroup TXD38G2400HC10QDC01 (DDR3-2400 CL10, 2x4GB)
and
G.Skill F3-2400C10D-8GTX (DDR3-2400 CL10, 2x4GB)
Would you recommend the same RAM or different RAM?
Thanks in Advance!

Arma 2 and 3 are some of the few games that benefit a lot from further bandwidth, here you also have some sources:
