Need help finding new RAM

[Debdibib]

Hello dwellers of oc3d, I am in need of upgrading my ram and was hopping you lot could help me pick some new modules for my pc.
I currently have 2*4gb 1600mhz corsair xms3 ddr3 modules and it is simply not enough anymore. Problem is I am sort of cramped for space in my pc and can not use any modules taller than these, since they are rubbing against my rad as is.

Current specs:
mb: msi z77 mpower
cpu: intel i7 3770k
gpu: asus gtx 780
ram: 8gb(2*4gb) 1600mhz corsair xms3
storage: corsair f120 120gb ssd, seagate barracuda 2tb 720rpm hdd
other: 800w fractal newton r2 psu, soundblaster z, custom cooling loop, nzxt h630 case.

I am looking for at least 16gb of ram, and faster than what i currently have. Any and all tips would be appreciated.

How much can you spend?

The popular choice right now are the vengeance series, good quality RAM from Corsair but if you can afford it, then Dominator Platinums sit at the top.

If you can wait a few days I will be putting some up on here for sale, Low profile vengence.in fact forget that you cant use diferent ram kits together can you sorry mate

.in fact forget that you can't use different ram kits together can you sorry mate

yes you can... most people buy the same kit to keep looks together.

if you are going to use different kits "different makes and models" make sure they are the same speed and timings.

The vengeance low profile like mine would be a good choice

It should be fine to get another kit of the same ram if you can find that for a reasonable price.

Why do you need faster ram?

ah ok then. well its the 1866mhz stuff it does 1600 at 9,9,9,24 tho

I dont need faster ram, but I'm thinking about going for 8gb modules, and it would not hurt to go for faster. And I have no real budget, say 3000-3500 sek(350-400€ or so) for 32gb and about half that for 16. Oh and yeah LP only as you can see its a tight fit even then.
