Hello all,
I am currently trying to decide on either 1600 or 2133 ram for my P67 Extreme4 Gen 3 mobo/i5 2500k machine. I am going to be using a 560 Ti and a 128gb SSD... Would I benefit greatly from the 2133 ram, or would G.SKILL Sniper Low Voltage Series 8GB 1600 work just fine without a noticeable difference?

Thanks for the help!

There's a link to the G.Skill.

i5's only support 1600MHz ram, so 2133 would be a huge waste of money

It is natively supporting @ 1333MHz, but it will work in different speeds as well.

Most common is @ 1600MHz as the RAM is still in the cheap category and in many cases it supports XMP profile.
