Hi there. I am brand new to this forum and brand new to building a new PC. I have bought all the parts, with the CPU and Motherboard finally arriving today. My problem is I have absolutely no idea what I am doing and reading some of these forums talking about BIOS, POSTing, etc etc etc is making my head spin. It's bad enough I need someone else to build the computer for me, but I just want to make sure everything is going to work once it's all put together, and after looking at several threads here, I cannot find a definitive answer if my choice of RAM and MOBO will work together. I bought the RAM mentioned in the title of this thread because it seemed to me it "would" work fine with the MOBO listed, but in the list included with the manual in the MOBO box, it isn't listed. If I have to get something else, I would like to know now so I can order it and then return the other.
These are the major parts of this build:
CPU - AMD Black Edition 965 3.4ghz Quad Core
MOBO - ASUS M4A87TD EVO
RAM - G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL
OS - Windows 7 Home Premium 64
Video Card - Gigabyte GV-N450OC-1GI RT
Case - Cooler Master HAF932
SSD - OCZ 60GB SSD
HDD - Seagate 2TB 5900 RPM 32MB Cache
Again, I would just really like to know the RAM I ordered will work with this MOBO to its full potential. Thank you for any feedback, and please keep in mind all the "tech" terms like overclocking, timing, BIOS, etc. mean nothing to me. I just need to push the power button and have it work. Have a great weekend.
