I want 8gb of RAM, maybe one day I'll upgrade to 16GB. When it comes to motherboards I don't really know what I'm doing. I will be using an nVidia 460SE.

If you read my other upgrading thread, forget the mobo and cpu I intended to get.

Any help appreciated.
Thanks

EDIT: Also is there any particular variety of RAM that would be best suited to this cpu and motherboard? And I'll be getting the black edition, so a mobo that's allows me to overclock would be best.

I asked on Yahoo Answers and someone suggested a Ga-78LMT. It's cheap, that's all I can really say about it. Is it good? I notice it says "[FONT=Arial]2x DDR3 1333(OC)/1066/800 MHz memory modules" does that mean that it will not accept memory faster than 1333mhz?[/FONT]
 
OK, I think I've actually managed to get everything sorted.This is what I plan on getting:

MSI 760GM-P23 (FX) AMD 760G (Socket AM3+) Motherboard

G.Skill RipjawsX 8GB DDR3 PC3-10666 1333mhz Single Module

Then I plan on sticking them in this case: Zalman Z9 Plus Black Tower Case - Black (No PSU) - With Fan Controller

Are they all compatible? From what I can tell they are but what do I know.
