I'm still undecided about what RAM to get.
I have a x58 system, 6GB Ram (tri channel) and quad core CPU as shown in image below. However, I do not want to comprise my overclock. I use to game, but now find my self using After Effects a lot and 3DS Max - cool hobby.
I thought 6GB would be enough (lol), but as more stuff I do with After Effects the more demanding it becomes.
I was thinking of getting 12GB RAM, but would like recomendations. I also have a Noctua NH14 big fan, so can't have RAM with heatsinks.
Can I go more than 12GB without risking overclock? Also can I popular all the memory slots, or does that cause problems?
Not interested in overclocking the RAM - just CPU.
I was thinking Corsair or Kingston. Quite happy to sell of my existing RAM.
I have ATI 5850 too.
