Kingston Value Ram any good?

[unclemao]

Just asking if kingston value select ram is good i'm a heavy gamer but I don't intend to overclock. Any help would be nice.

Exact model? Usually the "value" RAM has higher CAS latency. Not really what you want, but if you are strapped for cash, then its not really a bad buy.

CMV4GX3M1A1600C11 And because i'm only getting a 1080p monitor so i don't think getting a higher quality ram is worth it

So that is 1600MHz, CAS11 RAM.

Like I said, not BAD in any way. But you want CAS 9 RAM preferably.

alright but i'm pretty sure their is no big performance hit in games at 1080p right?

In some games that are CPU and RAM intensive there will be a performance difference of a few frames a second. Nothing too major.

 

[unclemao]

alright so say if i pair it up to a gtx 680 their won't be any massive frame rate differences? BTW do you know any good games that is cpu and ram intensive?

If you are spending that much on a build, you should not be looking at low cost RAM.

BALANCE is the key to any build.

Games like Battlefield 4, Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2 and many more.

1600MHz with CAS 11. Don't get this RAM. Get RAM at 1600MHz with CAS of 9.
