Hey, just a quick question - is this board OK to go with this RAM?

The RAM is bundled with the processor i'm getting, but i'm not sure if the speeds are OK with the board (don't know enough about it).

Cheers.

6 x DIMM, Max. 24 GB, DDR3 2000(O.C.)*/1866(O.C.)*/1800(O.C.)*/1600(O.C.)/1333/1066 Memory

All the details you need are found on that website, the board can support 1600MHz but you WILL need to overclock.

Yeah, that's what I figured from the (O.C) but I wasn't positive.

Is it worth it? I can buy the processor by itself and get slightly slower RAM for about $30 less. Just trying to weigh up whether I should uncomplicate things or if it's easy enough to overclock the board.

NVM Made the decision. Can lock now.
