DWhitney Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hi, I need help on determining compatibility and deciding on memory for my first build. From the new egg site, I'm considering one of these two CORSAIR XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model TR3X6G1600C7 G CORSAIR XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 Desktop Memory Model TR3X6G1333C7 G - Retail The new egg documentation says the first is compatible, but there's nothing on the second. I'm assuming the second set is also compatible? I'm mainly planning on using my system for number crunching (coding, octave, r), with some hd playback and games. I'm wondering if there is a better choice for my application? I'm guessing that the memory will be automatically detected, but may run at 1066 until the bios is tweaked? Thanks! Duane.

Wired Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 New parts take time to be added to the Corsair Compatibility Site. It should be compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
