    No, you're getting something wrong... There are listed as compatible kits from GSkill, Corsair, Kingstone, etc...

    Oh, I got your problem! You have to go down in the document... You've seen only the first page... Only the suggested 2400MHZ kits - go further in that page and you will have more!

    Sincerely, I would go with the GSkill F3-12800CL7Q-16GBXH(XMP)... it's a 4x4GB kit with low timings, it should be pretty good... (please, be advised that I don't have the Sabertooth z77 mobo and neither this memory kit, so I'm based entirely on what i've read before)

    Well, I'm confused here a little bit... last time you had a 850W PSU (post #15), what happened with that? You want it degraded at 660W?

    As I said previously, with 660W at PSU, you're getting too close to the max limits. It's better to keep the system's needs at around the half of the PSU capacity - there is the highest efficiency = longer life for both the PSU and your system. That's why I suggested to go somewhere in the 750-850W range with the PSU.

    No, that 680 in your graphic card's name is NOT meaning the top load! it's the model number... Actually, i was not able to find a nice review to discuss it's power consumption at max load... anyway, it may be higher than that of the reference design's since it's factory OC'd...

    go for a 750 - 850w power suply.
    becouse the card ( screencard ) draws a good deal of power on high load ( like all other cards do )
    so if i was you i would listen to zka17 on this one.
