Hi. I'm planning on putting together a new system using a Z77 Extreme6 and i5 3570K CPU, but I'm trying to figure out the memory to use. The way I understand it, DDR3 1600 is the fastest memory without overclocking. To use faster memory, would I actually need to overclock the CPU as well? If so, I'll probably just stick with the DDR3 1600 since I don't like to overclock. I'd like to put in 16GB of memory. Would it be better to put in a 2x8GB kit or 4x4GB? On my old system (different brand MB), it was recommended to stick with 2 sticks instead of 4 due to voltage issues. Is there any such recommendation with the Extreme6 or will a 4 stick kit work without BIOS tweaking?
Thanks.
Thanks.
