Hello All,
Currently i have an ASUS A55BM-E motherboard, AMD A10-7700K CPU, and a XFX Radeon HD 6790. I don't have any memory picked out yet but understand that the mobo can handle up to 2400MHz (also understand I can install higher but it will be clocked down) but I read somewhere the CPU will only handle 2133MHz. So my question is, do i get 2133MHz or 2400MHz? Primarily looking to keep this cheap so looking at 8GB kits unless i can get a steal on a 16GB.
EDIT: or do i just say screw over-thinking it and get 1600MHz since that is what most of the people over on pcpartpicker.com seem to be using with this cpu?
EDIT EDIT: I think I am probably going to go with this kit unless somebody thinks it won't work or won't run at the 2400MHz.
