Question 1

Hello. If my Rig is compatible with this RAM, would just inserting it be sufficient, or would I have to install some sort of drivers or the like?

Accepted Answer

Just stick it in and your BIOS will automatically recognize the new RAM.  Before you make the purchase, review your motherboard specifications to ensure that this particular RAM is supported.  If it will be ADDITIONAL to existing RAM, then ALL the RAM used must be the same technical specification (not necessarily the same brand of manufacture). I am using this RAM on two desktop PC's, and am well satisfied with my choice. When installing, keep your PC's PC cord plugged in to a 3-prong well grounded outlet, and the PS on/off switch turned OFF (this grounds your PC box and all content). Insert the RAM with great card, as it fits very tight.  Support the BACK of your motherboard in that general area, else risk cracking the motherboard.  Push back the motherboard locking clips, then carefully slide one end of the RAM fully into the slot,  followed by carefully guiding the rest of the RAM so that it fills the slot. Then, when you push down on one end of the RAM you should hear a CLICK, and note that the locking clip has locked in that end of the RAM. Repeat for the other end of the RAM. Ensure that the RAM's guiding 'slot' correctly lines up. If you experience trouble getting the RAM into the slot on any given attempt, back off and retry - carefully. In extreme circumstances, you may have to remove the motherboard in order to get the ram installed without causing damage.  If you have never done this before, find someone who has.   I have 32GB of this RAM installed on each PC, and in each case it took me around 20 minutes to accomplish - and I have 35+ years experience!  Enjoy your new RAM.

Accepted Answer

In order to find out if compatible, you need to research your PCs specs (intel i3 4150 mobo), online and find its requirements on memory, that's all you have to do.   Good Luck!

Question 4

Is this the best memory for overclocking on an Asus P8Z77-V LX Motherboard which supports up to a max of 32G? Price wise, I will not get anything lower than a speed of 1600Mhz...Is this a good bargain, or is it cheaper else where? if so, what site please?
