[tj107us]

Hi there i have a Asus P6X58D-E mobo and it says that it can support ram from 1066,1333,1600 and 2000 (overclocked),so my question is will this mobo support this package of ram?

I think there's a few problems with logging in here.

That RAM kit will work fine but two questions:

Do you need that much RAM and do you need 2000Mhz RAM speeds?

 

[tj107us]

well not really but right now i have 12gb of ram in my system but its only 1333Mhz and thought the 2000Mhz would make it a little fast, but i dont know how much faster it would make it.

cpu and gpu makes computer faster

 

[tj107us]

yeah but dont a fast cpu need fast ram to be able to keep up with the processor? and dont the ram have to run faster then the mcc will let the cpu have the data so there want be any lag in the system?

 

[Sporego]

no whats your ram speed? and gpu plays game faster with cpu as bottle neck whats your systme

That's already an impressive rig there. The only thing i'd work on are the graphics card and 'maybe' the RAM.

1600Mhz seems to be the 1366 i7's sweet spot; the RAM controller is happy at this speed and if you really, really don't need 12GB RAM then go for 6GB, add the money you save to the sale of your HD5770 and buy a HD5870.

 

[tj107us]

what about the 5970 gpu i want to build a beast

 

[Remeniz]

Crikey!!!

Now your talking. But yea your rig with a HD5970 and 1600Mhz RAM will be epic!

And i'll be very envious!
