Hi, im looking for 8GB of memory for my new sandy bridge build i7 2600K.
narrowed it down between two.

GeIL 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz VALUE PLUS Dual Channel
Corsair XMS3 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit

which one would you recommend?

There isn't much to choose between them really, they are both good.

Whichever is cheapest is probably the easiest way to seperate them.

Im going with the Geil mainly because its £30 odd quid cheaper

Basically exactly the same, save the money and get the geil few more beers in it then
