Gigabyte GA-EP45T-EXTREME Memory advice

[alien8]

Hi,

 

I'm looking at some Corsair CMX8GX3M4A1333C9 for my Motherboard

and I'm asking would this compatibilty :confused:

I want to upgrade my Motherboard to 8GB..

I'm running some 4GB of some other brand of PC1333mhz at the moment, but would prefer to go for some Corsair.

I looked up my Memory list with Gigabyte but it only shows info on 1Gb Sticks :rant:

Also specs on my Motherboard says it can run 1600mhz, I've being told I can only run that at 1333mhz what a let down ! :mad: is this true ?

 

Thanks ..:D:

 

 

Motherboard specs:

GA-EP45T-Extreme

Intel E8600 CPU 3.33Ghz / O/s - Windows 7 64 bit

Intel E8600 = 1333 MHz FSB. Unless you overclock it, your memory would be limited to 1333 MHz as well.

OK, well not worried about overclocking, just need to know would the Corsair CMX8GX3M4A1333C9 work ok on a EP45T-Extreme Motherboard

I play a lot of 3D Games so need the best preformace Memory, and would prefer 8Gb to have, Using 4GB with another brand

I've heard good reviews about Corsair Memory and would like to have some on my Motherboard..
