My motherboard is a H270 chip with i5 6600 DDR4 2133 MHZ max support so I want to get the lowest latency possible an the price difference between the two are a few bucks

Was curious between these two https://www.kingston.com/dataSheets/HX426C15FB_4.pdf DDR4-2133 CL12-14-14 @1.2V and https://www.kingston.com/dataSheets/HX424C15FB_4.pdf DDR4-2133 CL14-14-14 @1.2V Is it better to have equal timings or is it a case of the lower the better? Thanks in advance

thanks once again for the info and explanation

Thanks for the info guys, and what is the difference between JEDEC and XMP is JEDEC the standard and XMP like an overclock?

I have ROG STRIX H270F GAMING and an i5 6600. Since it supports max speed of DDDR4 2133 MHz on Skylake, if I were to get this RAM https://www.kingston.com/dataSheets/HX424C15FB_4.pdf Will it run at DDR4-2133 CL14-14-14 @1.2V right of the bat, or will I need to tweak some things in the BIOS...

Thank you once again for the links. I've looked around and the Fractals and Noctuas are available in my area so I'll go with one or the other.

Thanks for links, and can you also recommend good and silent CPU and case fans?

Hi as the title states I'm looking to buy the above case. Firstly though, I'm curious about the temps it will achieve with the following specs: CPU: Intel - Core i5-6600 3.3GHz Quad-Core Processor Motherboard: Asus - STRIX H270F GAMING ATX LGA1151 Motherboard Memory: Kingston - HyperX Fury...

Is there some program or a way to select which updates you want to be included or is the only way to download a full copy from the link you posted? And yes I have a valid license key for Windows 7 Professional x64

Hey, so I want to install Windows 7 on a 270 mobo with skylake i5. To be more specific i5 6600k and this motherboard. https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-H270F-GAMING/overview/ I did some research and i see ASUS provides installation software and lists this combination as...

Want to create an install medium for Windows 7 x64 both USB and a DVD one with all updates released so far. Any advice and recommendations are appreciated. Thanks in advance

I've decided to squeeze in extra RAM and a GTX 1070 in the build based on suggestions in this thread, Thank you again for your build examples and opinions

Sadly the i7 6700 and the GTX 1070 are quite over my budget. I went with the GTX 1060 due to the nice performance/price ratio, eventhough in certain benchmarks is more in line with 50fps. Was interested in the RX480, but the GTX 1060 seemed better. As for the parts manufacturers, I chose the...

I'm building a new PC (photoshop, light video editing and gaming) so wanted input on the parts chosen. I mainly play older games, however was wondering if the CPU and GPU would last at least 3-5 years down the line. Any advice is appreciated. Note: 1080p/60fps is my preference for older games...

Yeah i agree, the larger sizes are the only benefit i get right now for DDR4, and alexoiu thanks for the link it offered a nice insight. The way i figured Corsair wants to trump higher latencies with higher bandwith. If I go it wrong feel free to correct me.
