Hey guys!
currently i got 2700K, Asus P8Z77-V PRO, Kingston HyperX DDR3 2x 4GB 1866 MHz XMP CL9 Genesis.

I will sell this stuff and buy 4770K, maximus 6 formula and RAM.

I also have noctua NH14D, here is RAM compatibility list: http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=compatibility_ram_gen&products_id=34&lng=en

and i have question: which ram (the best is 2x8GB or 4x4GB you recommend for OC? I am asking, cause I'm RAM noob 🙂

I would like to OC my new 4770K to 4.2 stable. Price for ram does not matter.

I would simply get 2 x 8GB kit as two sticks is easier to clock than 4.

The sweet spot for your CPU is 2400MHz.

No sorry I can not do that as I do not know what is available in Poland.

But any 16GB kit of 2 x 8GB sticks of memory at 2400MHz will do the job.

this one is too high and uncompatible with my noctua.

The fins are removable and very easy to do so. Once removed, the memory will fit under your NH-D14 without problems.
