Hey guys. I want to upgrade my RAM on my PC build, currently using --G.SKILL Ripjaws DR3-1600 PC3-12800 (2x2MB).
Here is my question I want to buy 2x4MB to add to my 4MB, but question is can I buy 2nd generation-- (G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL -- designed for Intel P67 & Z68 or should I get first generation to go well with my build --G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL . Here is the think I am running i5-760 (first generation) and I want to know if RAM designed for 2nd generation will work as well with my first generation CPU. I would rather buy second generation because that CPU will get upgraded as well in future and when that happens at least I will have RAM already in place ready for 2nd generation CPU.
Thank you guys in advance
