Hi Folks,
I'm running a X6 1090T and a pair of 2GB DDR3 HyperX Kingston RAM on the above mentioned mobo.
I'm planning to upgrade the modules, since I've to copy all our MiniDV's to digital format and edit them, I got around 25 hanging around...
There's plenty of work to do...since new ones are being created every two months more or less.
The current offer on the market makes it difficult to decide, I also must say that Gigabyte's Qualified Vendor List for the mobo is not up to date imho.
Hence I decided to check the manufacturer sites and use their RAM Tool instead.
The Kingston ones I'm using are on 1.65v, the gma-u2dh supports 1.5v, more if you OC, but I'm not planning to.
The ones I looked at use lower voltage than Kingston: less heat, less consumption and I assume it is also better for the memory controller of the cpu & they also have life warranty....
What do you think of the below?
1.
Crucial 2.
Corsair Vengeance3.OCZ -> here I have no clue...got lost on their website
4.
G-Skill Couldn't find my model, instead GA-880GM-D2H, don't know if that matters...but no 16GB are offered.
What do you think? Is 16GB overkill, or rather 8GB?
Do you think that the choice is more or less correct?
Cheers,
Ken
