Ram Compatibility check

[Dlee13]

I have a faulty RAM module and I'm looking to finally replace them. I have a Gigabyte Z77-D3H mobo and Intel i5 3570 CPU and just wanted to make sure both of these are compatible with it.

Also which would everyone recommend is better?

here. for future reference, board manufacturers publishes their supported cpu and ram online. so just check if what you want is listed there (you might need to upgrade bios if it's for the cpu), for the ram if it's not there it does not mean it wont work, it just means it wasn't tested.
most ddr3 rams will work with most ddr3 capable boards.
sorry but i cannot check your link,

The QVL lists are never complete and not updated very often.

Support for DDR3 2800(OC)/1600/1333/1066 MHz memory modules

Yes they are compatible , I like the Gskill.

yes, not complete, but it's worth a look.
and these days, i dont think incompatible rams are that common.

Both sets are compatible.

Both of those sets are compatible and should be fine. I'd lean to the GSkill set, stronger with more OC headroom. Also always keep in mind that while the QVL list DRAM that they have tested, that doesn't guarantee it will be compatible with your overall rig. You need a CPU (actually the MC (memory controller)) that can carry the data rate of the DRAM. You've made a good choice with 1600 sticks, a non K model CPU like yours should be fine with 1600 and possibly 1866 but 2133 and up would prob be a waste of money 😉
