Hello , i've received a lots of help from this forum lately , but i need your help once again :P

Here's my setup

- Processor : intel 950 @ 3,07GHz
- mother board : Asus Rampage III formula
- memmory : 6gb (ddr3 tripple channel)
- Video card : Nvdia Geforce GTX 460
- Power supplie : 1200w
- Casing : Coolmaster Haf 932
- HD : 500gb + 1TB external HD

I am gonna buy a new Video card and upgrade to a SSD (thanks to shroudster and n0cturnal) but i have a question about these ram stick

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820233218

As you may notice i am restricted with Triple channel slot but someone refereed me those ram stick and i wonder if it will fit on my triple channel.
if so i will replace my current 3 ram stick for 3 of those '' cant go for more then 3 cause my motherboard support up to 24gb of desktop memory''

Here's my shopping list

Was there any particular reason you felt you needed the GTX 680, by chance? Or why you went for that version over perhaps the Asus, Gigabyte, or MSI alternatives?

Shrouder referred me this one , if you have a good one to refer i will be happy to check it out , also thanks a lots for your help about the deskop memory , i would have done a terrible mistake ordering those hehe

Anytime!

And I personally just think the 680s are overall quite overpriced and you're better off getting a GTX 670 or AMD alternative if you aren't against going red on the GPU front.

Here's an exceptional Gigabyte GTX 670, that uses the same PCB as a 680 would: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814125423

4GB won't offer any performance gain.

Not only will there be a noticeable difference, the price is a staggering difference for a reference-based card. The cooling will be poor and loud in comparison to the one I linked.

meh i just don't prefer gigabyte gpu's as it isn't the field that they as a brand are one of the best in imo. (for gpu brands i'd look for would be evga/msi/asus)
very few people got a need for 4gb cards, since the actual scenarios it performs better are very specific/rare (i just snatched this card on a good sale :P)
