2 5870's cross fire (The XFX I wanted JUST sold out >:-[ )

MSI f90 FX gd70 Mobo

ram running at 1600 if i'll be able to at 1.9 which people claim they've had success(kindof an overclock but not really)

I was thinking going with
8gb mushkin blackline = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820146871

Something that can be overclocked well hehe

Thanks a bunch in advance

P.S. I know the ram is high voltage but the timing seems comparably low for the price, granted my mobo (which is the only one that suits my needs)
if there is a better ram out there to run 8 gigs at 1600(or better?) with a comparable timing then any and all suggestions are welcome 😀

also might want to take a look at the 1333 MHz version as it is 7-7-7-20 but only 1.5 volts
your computer is just like mine (i got the 5970 hehehe) but this stuff rocks:

G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL7D-4GBRH - Retail

its amazing at about the same price i think and its 7-7-7-20 at 1.6 volts. It overclocks like crazy too! :bounce:
 
8-8-8-20 but it is kept at 1.6 volts When it is at 1.7 it can go down to 7-6-7-20 or something like that but it is very highly recommended, but i do love mushkin RAM
 
I am a bit weary of the board but it is the only one that fits my needs, and I've had them before on my very first build and it still runs today hehe, there's always RMA XD
