never used the corsair. My Kingston has had ZERO problems. Currently handles BF4 and the rest on Ultra. I have a great graphics card as well in combination.

I went with 32GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport Low profile DDR3 1600. I do photo and video editing as well with Elements 11 and Sony Vegas Pro. This was my first home built computer and after looking over the specs for the Intel DX79SR MB I went with the 1600. I boot up within 15 seconds to the start page on windows 8.1. I'm happy with the performance of the computer.

I would consult the Corsair website before buying. It seems to be tuned for Intel, but more important is the DDR3 1600MHz compatibility with your system. Just being AMD doesn't provide enough info to give a definite answer.

No! It only excepts DDR3 speeds of @ 2133Mhz, 1800Mhz, 1600MHz, 1333Mhz, 1066MHz, and 800Mhz... If it's not listed by the Manufacturer as being able to except it -- it won't!!! I wouldn't try it, or will or might damage the Motherboard and other hardware components!!! It will only except the @ "1800 (PC3 14400)"!!! If you already bought the (Kingston HyperX Fury 1866mhz) -- than this not the Motherboard for you!!! It you're looking to purchase @ Memory with a Motherboard in a package deal, and want those high speeds in the 1800Mhz+ range -- than I would suggest buying either @ "DDR3 1800Mhz (PC3 14400)" or the higher @ "DDR3 2133Mhz (PC3 17000)" chipsets!!! For almost the exact same equal price as the @ Kingston Hyper X Fury 1866Mhz 2X8GB kit @ $190., you can get 16gb package of @ DDR3 2133Mhz for roughly around $170-$190., and some even cheaper than that and get better performance for the price also!!!

I don't think so in the memory list from Gigabyte in the corsair section the fastest references is 1600 http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4601#

1600. While you 'may' be able to overclock, there is nothing stopping a 1600mghz chip from running faster that 1600 if you are successful. On the other hand, you can pay a lot more for 'certified' RAM faster than 1600 - but doesn't mean the system will be stable because you paid for faster RAM. I say 1600 because this is the base for i7-3930K and because 1600 was fastest I could get mine to go (without crashing) on both ASUS and Intel motherboards.

Yes this RAM is compatible with your motherboard/chipset. This RAM is fast at stock speeds and allows plenty of overclocking headroom. I've been using Corsair RAM and Solid State Drives exclusively in all of my custom builds. While I can't say I've used every 1600MHz module on the market, I can say that I trust Corsair to make a good, durable product.

1866 Mhz RAM at the minimum, but 2133mhz and 2400mhz give the best results if you're using the onboard graphics. Most 1866 kits are easily overclocked to 2400mhz as well, if you wish to save a few bucks. If using a discreet GPU however, RAM speed matters little. In terms of what brand to get, it doesn't really matter, though brands like Corsair's Dominator Series, G.Skill's various lines, Kingston, among others are well-known quality brands.

Hi Erallo. No, this motherboard supports up 1866MHZ (DDR3). So I have this motherboard and also bought Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB kit that runs at 1866MHZ. I plan on buying another kit to max out at 32GB of RAM

For the RAM consult the compatibility reference for this motherboard on ASUS site. You have a choice for 1600MHz - 2400MHz speed for the RAM. The faster the DDR3 speed you know the faster is the response. For the Video card PCIe 2.0x is the interface as you know. Go with a 2GB memory card if you plan to do gaming or some media editing. Otherwise the video built into the Intel processor is good enough. It purchased AMD R8 270x 2GB card and the system is simply very good in performance.

According to the Asus website, the board you're asking about supports DDR3 1600MHz or higher frequency RAM (this particular model is 1600) if you have an Intel® 3rd generation processor. Corsair Vengeance is on the Asus memory qualified vendors list as well. In general, RAM is pretty universal.

Quad channel is better for delivering more bandwidth. You won't need 32gb of ram unless you are doing professional video editing and rendering or 3d graphics. 16gb of ram is more than enough for all gaming and normal video editing.

I have no idea , I bought the beast just because it was the first one to come for the best price. Did you compare the stats on them besides MHz? Mine work fine, and have had no problems with them. Just remember to have a 64 bit OS or you will not be able to to get the full speed out of them

I bought cossair dominator 16 GB 1833 MHz and love it. How ever the I heard g skill is good too. Most importantly refer to mb ram compatibility chart from Asus web site. Sorry I don't know to well about Kingston. Happy ram hunting!
