Timings or Mhz?

[Pat123]

Which is more important when buying memory, im not sure whether to just go for dominator 1600Mhz or lump out some more cash for 2000/2133Mhz. The timings are tighter on the lower frequency, not really sure which makes the most difference?

Also are corsair still the best memory for the money?

With Sandy Id just get 1600mhz, the chips are amazing with memory so you dont need to spend a fortune. If you are in the UK look at the 6-8-6 1600 kits from gskill or mushkin.

Oh and if it was me Id get the UD4

I am seriously wondering what you are trying to archive with thight timings ?!

i guess benchmarking ?

EDIT oops you seems to know either...

Yeh i really like the black PCB and what not, it should go lovely with my black corsair 800D and black watercooling setup. And as for the RAM i was hoping to get it all from scan, but they only seem to sell corsair.

Im not sure what difference the timings really made so I was asking

Ebuyer seems to have the most diverse range of RAM compared to most of the other retailers. Ebuyer is pretty good as well, i'd recommend them anyway.

Ebuyer seem a little bit expensive on a few things though, i might have a look at splitting between the two, but postage cancels any savings out.
