We are building the following for gaming:
Intel 4770k
1660 TI
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming mobo
https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/z87-g45-gaming.html
Support four DDR3 1066/1333/1600/1866*/2000*/2133*/2200*/2400*/2600*/2666*/2800*/3000*(*OC) MHz DRAM, 32GB Max
We might overclock
I have the following RAM options:
Also not sure about the latency 10 (versus 9 on the Ripjaws) on the Sniper as compared to its much larger memory size than the Ripjaws?
Also, will this motherboard automatically recognize #1 or will it require a bios update? Im not sure what the asterisk means for 1866* in the motherboard specs. I want to see this boot out of the gate and worry about BIOS update later.
