Also check port compatibilities. You've got a USB 3.0 capable mobo and the case has 1 USB 3.0 and 2 USB 2.0 ports. It would be a good idea to look for something with more 3.0 ports. There are improvements to power output (charges things faster, more peripherals etc.) and r/w speeds.

True, not to forget there are 2 USB 3.0 ports on the mobo too, so that's 3 ports in total now. :p

To laptop geeks out there:

I have a laptop with this RAM: 2 x 2gb PC3-8500 DDR3 1066mhz

I'm trying to upgrade my ram but i'm confused. What i see in the market i have access to are these:

PC3 12800 1600mhz DDR3 2 x 4gb = $57

PC3-8500 1066mhz DDR3 2 x 4gb = $66

So yeah, the higher freq is cheaper. i just don't know if it will be compatible to my laptop's motherboard.

So my question is, do PC3xxxx stuff indicate compatibility to motherboards?

Or all DDR3 rams are considered compatible to any DDR3 motherboards?

[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
The case doesn't have any USB 3.0 ports (or at least doesn't list them, although 2 ports are visible on the face of the case) but your mobo supports it so that's worth noting.

Your 1866 RAM is an unnecessary expense since your mobo only supports up to 1600, get some cheaper RAM and divert those funds to another area where you skimped a bit to afford it.

Your mobo also doesn't support SLI (your graphics card does), and with a 1GB graphics card at this point in time you would probably want the cheaper upgrade potential.

If you can work a little with the budget I also suggest switching from HDD to at least Hybird SSD just to help keep it from being too outdated.
