Which ram is worth for money and performance with DZ68DB

[arpit2141]

HI i am going to build a system with Intel DZ68DB with Intel core i5 2320
I am going to use this system for Run virtual box OR VM-WARE with xp or other server os for my study

I am confusing with which ram to install .

I know this Mother Board require DDR3 ram but i want to Know which would be better DDR3 1333 MHZ or DDR3 1600 MHZ ?

as Intel spec says that it support DDR3 1333MHZ what happen if i install DDR3 1600 MHZ ?

what is advantage of DDR3 1600 over DDR3 1333 for my Board ?

Just use DDR3 1333MHz. Only difference is speed but not to much you'll notice it.
32gb max is kinda overkill for running virtualbox unless you got the cash and just dont care.
I suggest you got with 16 (2x8gb)

What about Cas Latency ?

what is good 7 or 8 or 9 with DDR3 1333 MHZ

 

[Suave145]

anyone will tell you cas latency almost doesn't matter. but the lower the better.

Tell me a bit about this server. Is it a private server? Help me get an understanding for the best picks fit for you and if you don't care and want the speed you can go with > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226314

If you use memory that is 20% faster, then your computer will work 1.2% faster. Get memory with a low CAS rating but don't spend extra money on it. Also if you use memory faster than 1333Mhz you may have problems as some BIOS's don't set the timings correctly and you have to enter the settings manually.

In my locality i have not able to get 8 GB module ram can i go for 4X4gb is it make any difference in Performance of my PC

i know that it will take all my 4 slot to install it and i will not able to install any more ram without removing it in future .

And i seen many ram on web that mention that is low profile , gaming ram , high performance any many other words with it what all this means ?

Is it trick to get more money from customer or is it true

 

[Suave145]

No, But I only say 8gb dimms just incase you'd want to eventually go for the full 32gb. but since you don't, you can do 4x4gb.

Only if the specs add up.

Have you looked at any ram that you are going to get or have an idea of?
