F3-1600C8D-8GAB OR F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL ?

Ares (F3-1600C8D-8GAB). It has the same speed but lower latency making it faster than the other option.

If there is a big difference in price, go for Ripjaws X; You won't really notice the difference.

 

[Nathan Willis]

The Ares is a little bit faster. In real world computing you will not see it though.
I would go for the Ripjaws X. It is a good brand.
Get the RAM the is compatible with your MOB though.
Some types, Speeds (MHZ), and manufacturers are not supported.

YEAH .!! Ripjaws looks solid then ares

ty for ur advice

 

[Nathan Willis]

Sure! I would get the Ripjaws. Unknow RAM brands can cause tons of problems.
I bought some to save money (Bad idea) and it caused me a heck of a ton of problems. BSODs ETC.
Get a good brand and you will be fine.

Unknown brands? Both the Ares And the Ripjaws X are made by G.Skill.

 

[Nathan Willis]

Or.... Lesser known.

I used ripjaws on a am3+ [sabertooth] and had issues could only use 1 stick in any slot but I built this intel z87 and used the same kit from the am3+ in it and they work great no issues at all solid and stable

 

[Nathan Willis]

Get the RipJaws. Tons of people have used them and they are tried and true.

 

[kresna889]

ripjaw's compatible with APUs ?

 

[spooky2th]

Both are good memory. Get whichever is cheapest.

 

[Tradesman1]

Either will work, keep in mind APUs like and use faster DRAM, especially for their graphics, might look to something faster unless planning a discrete GPU

 

[Vlad Rose]

Both are great, and are from the same brand. As most people have said, the Ares have a little tighter timings, but won't really be noticeable in real world usage. One thing to consider though is the height of the RAM with the heat spreader on it. Some CPU cooling blocks may not give much room in the first memory slot.

 

[junkeymonkey]

any memory can be finicky with any board just go with what compatible with your board and get a matched kit of what you want to use and it should be fine. I've used most brands of memory and they been pretty good but like with everything sometimes you gat something that's not and that's with any computer part you buy... good luck

 

[Nathan Willis]

If your running an APU get the faster of the pair.
Your APU will share RAM as VRAm and you will want it to be faster to give you better graphics performance.
Just get the RAM that is compatible with your MOB.

how about corsair (CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9) it's good.?

 

[Eduello]

how about corsair (CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9) it's good.?

Yes, especially if you use with an APU since (as previously mentioned) they tend to do better with faster RAM.

 

[Nathan Willis]

Yes, that RAM is good too.
Like I say though. Check the compatibility list for your MOB.
They are online and can save you a lot of headache.
Most good brand RAM is compatible, but it is still good to check.

 

[spooky2th]

That Corsair kit is good too. Depends on your MB and CPU as to how much MHz you can get to.

 

[kresna889]

or this one CMD8GX3M2A1866C9

 

[Nathan Willis]

That is excellent RAM. The fast Bus speed is great especially if you use an APU. (MHz)
Make sure your MOB supports that speed.

 

[spooky2th]

The Corsair Dominator kit is good too. What MB and CPU do you have?

 

[kresna889]

yeah my mobos support both (im pick that code from memory support list)

 

[kresna889]

a10 6790
GA-F2A55M-DS2 R3

 

[spooky2th]

yeah my mobos support both (im pick that code from memory support list)

What about your CPU?
