?? Correct ram for this board?
 

Memory:
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Low Profile Desktop Memory Model CML8GX3M2A1600C9 - Newegg.com

Motherboard:
ASUS P8Z77-V LK LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

Sorry about the MoBo. Couldn't get the link to post correctly.

Any other (as in maybe less expensive since prices seem to be rising daily) memory that would work as well?

That is our #1 recommended memory for Z77 boards, and memory prices are increasing across the board. Not worth cheaping out.
