    OCZ or G.Skill

    With my future purchase of an ASUS Striker II Extreme I have to move to DDR3 and I hesitate between two kit..

    G. Skill PI Black Series 4 GB (2x 2 GB kit) DDR3-SDRAM PC3-12800 - F3-12800CL7D-4G***-B (10 years G. Skill warranty)

    Or OCZ NVIDIA SLI-Ready Edition 4GB (2x 2 GB kit) DDR3-SDRAM PC3-14400 - OCZ3N1800SR4GK (10 years OCZ warranty)

    How is it that OCZ are good prices? they interest me because I would buy 8 gb but it intrigues me so low price, rating, reviews on your part would be welcome

    For me, the OCZ timings are a bit rotten.

    Otherwise, I do not denigrating your choice, but Striker 2 Extreme and 8 GB of RAM, must be justified ..

    I am a graphic designer specializing in 3D computer graphics and 8GB are not a luxury in some applications

    it is true that OCZ is 8-8-8-27 while the competition offers 8-8-8-21 to 8-8-8-24 view of 1800MHz, is what it raises a big diff level timing?

    Frankly, the ram timings have become much less important than the frequency of our days (and even the frequency in the final de-sync is much less damaging than before). So do not bother to seek the ultimate AMHA timings.

    yes that is what I thought

    and then selling it at the beginning of the DDR3 @ 1333MHz with CL9

    The DDR3 @ 1800MHz in C/8, and all at Rs. 5200, it seems really cheap.

    no return on these negative strips?

    In the end I hear what I say I will sell a gtx 280 and go to the asus rampage extreme!

    is what OCZ ram certified for 790i SLI ready does not pose problem on a motherboard based on X48?

    The sli Ready is simply a name. SLI has nothing to do with RAM DIMMs. It's all false wholesale marketing. So normally it works as well with a motherboard not compatible with SLI
