This is the motherboard i am currently going to buy. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813121387 Will the ram I have chosen here be compatible with this motherboard I have posted above? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145263 Thanks for any help or recommendations. *LINKS FIXED* Sorry for that!

Links don't work..
For compatability, just go to the motherboard manufacturers website and look for a compatability guide... if you stick with RAM from the manufacturers guide, no problems.

Same here...bad link. Type out what you are looking at and we can go into Newegg to look it up.

That will work. The RAM you picked is actually 2 x 2GB and not 3 X 2GB.
What would be a better choice is to drop the voltage on the RAM to 1.5 volts Newegg.com - CORSAIR XMS3 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model TW3X4G1333C9A G I would get an Asus board over an Intel board. glc will have a better idea than I.

I would recommend this motherboard instead:
Newegg.com - ASUS P7P55D-E Pro LGA 1156 Intel P55 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard Ram: Newegg.com - CORSAIR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 Desktop Memory Model CMV4GX3M2A1333C9 -OR- Newegg.com - CORSAIR XMS3 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 Desktop Memory Model CMX8GX3M2A1333C9 |
