I going to be purchasing the following parts for my new computer sometime next week. I would like to know which brand of DDR3 memory from Newegg.com will be best suited for the following motherboard and processor that's listed below. Here's what I have in mind of the components I'm planing to put on this board:


Processor: QX9650

Motherboard: XFX LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra SLI ATX
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813141009

Graphic Card: XFX Geforce 9800 GX2
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150284

I'm mainly going to be using this computer for mostly photography, 3D computer modeling, and gaming. I'm looking to purchase 2 of 2x2GB (8GB Total) kits of the best brand of memory for this computer.

Any suggestions :)
 
I'm actually building my system right now using the QX9650 but going crossfire with Asus Maximus mb. My last shipment of parts is coming today which includes RAM, I went with Corsair XMS3 2048MB PC10600 DDR3 1333MHz (2x1024) (C13-7084 ), I'll tell you how it goes.
 
Corsair is nice brand I heard. Newegg.com must of added that new brand of memory within a couple of days ago cause I didn't see it when I was getting price quotes for parts. Originally I was looking at this one.

But since they both are the same price and have the same timings I'll might purchase that one you posted mep916 and take advantage of the 1600 (PC3 12800) if I choose to overclock my system.

Thanks for the link.

@quiktek: That looks pretty sweet motherboard. Good luck with it and let me know how it turns out.
