Recently upgraded my system and ran into some gaming troubles. After some testing and research around the internet I landed on my problem, the new memory I ordered which isn't supported by my mobo. I'll assume its the memory because I went back to my Mushkin and everything has installed correctly. So I will be returning my Corsair and picking up some gskill memory. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231456
Current System Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7-3770k (Ivy Bridge) @ 3.50GHz
GFX: GTX560 Ti
Power Supply: 750w Corsair
Mobo: ASrock Z68 Ext3 Gen3
Does it look like any of these parts will conflict with each other? The memory is on the mobo's supported list and a review from newegg states a customer was able to plug them in use the XMP to get them to 1866 and everything was swell.
If everything does look hunky dory then how would I go about getting the sticks at 1866 when I do get it? I have never tinkered with overclocking or anything of that sort but g.skill seems fairly confident that they can and will run at 1866 regardless of setup. I don't 'think' airflow or cooling will be a problem thanks to the fan setup and the ZALMAN 9900 cooler I'm using which is doing an amazing job of keeping the CPU at 40c under load.
Thanks
