Hi guys. Got a question here. Hope someone can help me.
I got caught thinking about an RAM upgrade, since my old 2x2gb 2000mhz kit is relatively "weak" for actual use because it's only 4gb and Battlefield 3 won't even run because the lack of memory. And my aplications are starting to beg for more RAM.
So I had the opportunity to get 2 kits of F3-17000CL9D-8GBXM for a real nice price.
My question is... The memory controller of 2600k is not as strong as 3770k's. Can the 2600k handle 2 of these kits? Can I safely run these kits with the XMP profile loaded?
Getting an 3770k is really out of view.
My actual config is:
2600k @ 5ghz, Biostar TZ77XE4, 2x2gb corsair dominator gt 2000mhz, GTX 580 Lightning Xtreme Edition, PSU Corsair TX2 750w, SSD Crucial M4 128gb and 3x 2tb HDDs for storage.
Main use of PC: Work and benchmarking. Gaming just a little bit.
Thanks in advance.
