ASUS Rampage IV Extreme

[gamingpy]

Hello friends, I'm back here, I've already changed my motherboard for this beauty of a board hehe, now I want to ask you a question, I have 2 DDR3 RAM memories, one of 4GB of 1600 MHz Corsair and another of 2GB of 1600 also Corsair, and I don't know if it will have problems with this motherboard that really demands a lot in terms of requirements and I don't want to try it just for the sake of trying, I read the manual on the official page of the supported memories but I don't understand it well.

For example, it says for 6GB use 3 of 2GB of 1600.

And I don't know if I will have problems and I don't want to burn anything before everything starts (ASSEMBLY) in a few days I will buy the i7 LGA 2011 processor but I don't want to do something that damages the motherboard or memory.. I want some advice. Regards

As I assume you have already ordered the Quad-Channel kit of 4 identical memories (I assume 4x4GB), until they arrive, just plug in your 4GB memory, and this will avoid problems configuring the timmings in BIOS manually.

Salu2!

PD: don't worry, you won't burn anything

The memories I have are:

4 GB CMX8GX3M2A1600C9 model

2 GB TR3G6G1600C9 model

I am thinking of adding 1 more memory to the 4 GB one, what I still don't understand is why it says for example

(2x4GB) 9-9-9-24 1.65V, is this some kind of configuration in the setup to modify it in case of having the same model with that amount of GB to configure it?

For the moment I am not getting the memories in Quad-Channel because there are none here in my country or I haven't looked well yet :facepalm: well I have only seen that they sell them separately.

What do you advise me to do..

If you can't find any Quad-Channel kits, you can buy two exactly the same Dual-Channel kits.

Salu2!

PD: Corsair is a great brand, but buy the 1.5V models

Many thanks I will take it into account and I think that for now it is the solution until those memories are on sale here. Regards

[gamingpy]

Or buy me 2x4GB of 2133MHZ that could come out super well.

[Tecnho]

Apart from the memories I recommend that the ones you buy are of the lowest profile possible, as Corsair tells you it is one of the best brands, if you buy also gskill they are very good and they are usually low, the quad kits are the ripjaws-z.

[gamingpy]

On the official Asus page there is a list of supported memories, is it mandatory to meet these memory requirements or can you deviate a little from this configuration.

I have seen the prices of G.SKILL ram and I think they seem more accessible, one of 8GB of 2133 MHZ costs $78 according to the manual I downloaded from the official site, this is the recommendation.

DDR3 2133 Qualified Vendors List (QVL)

G.SKILL F3-17000CL9Q-16GBXLD(XMP) 16GB (4x 4GB)
G.SKILL F3-17066CL9Q-16GBTDD(XMP) 16GB (4x 4GB)
G.SKILL F3-17066CL9D-8GBPID(XMP) 8GB (2x 4GB)

Here is the detail that I do not understand if it is necessary to comply with these rules that come out there or if they are just recommendations for good functioning

A picture is worth a thousand words ;D
