You can't use DDR4 with this motherboard...

    CORSAIR Vengeance Pro 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 
    (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMY32GX3M4A1600C9 (Silver)

i will correct it on the post

Get the beast...
And rethink your case choice...

for the case there was a video on the tek where wendell ends up recommending the same case for this motherboard

The Hyper 212 evo may not be sold with the correct mounting for the 2011 & 2011 v3 sockets. http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/cpu-air-cooler/hyper-212-evo/

Read the * at the bottom: Supplied accessories may differ by country or area. Please check with your local distributor for further details.

Actually the case in the video is Define XL, but R4 will do the job as well, yeah...
If you ask me, i would still say go with another case, but whatever.

there is no issues there and if so i got it covered with replacements

if the case is a problem i will eventually trade it with a friend of mine who has a Phanteks Enthoo Pro

so should i stick with the hyperX or should i go with the vengeance

That was exactly the one on my mind...

Nothing wrong with the beast. Don't really see a reason to switch it for corsair. The beast is really really high quality, so...

Why get the beast? the vengeance are cheaper, and they seem to be identical.

This I know nothing about. Failure rates and such.

To me ? It is always easy ? What is the fastest ram your mb will support. What is the cheapest price you can get on it from a decent company?

i7 processors

JEDEC standard 1.5V (1.425V - 1.575V) Power Supply
VDDQ = 1.5V (1.425V - 1.575V)
667MHz fCK for 1333Mb/sec/pin
8 independent internal bank
Programmable CAS Latency: 9, 8, 7, 6
Posted CAS

Programmable CAS Write Latency(CWL) = 7 (DDR3-1333)
8-bit pre-fetch

Burst Length: 8 (Interleave without any limit, sequential with starting address "000" only), 4 with tCCD = 4 which  
does not allow seamless read or write [either on the fly using A12 or MRS]

but the vengeance

What i ment by Beast is high quality was this:
Corsair mainstream - vengance, high end - dominator.
Kingston mainstrem - Fury/Savage, high end - Beas/Predator.
That was my point. He will switch high end memory from kingston for mainstream memory from Corsair.
If money saving is the point of the exercise:

so what your saying is that best for performance ram is HyperX Beast, no doubt, but is it's about saving money i should go with

                          G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM 
                          DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) Desktop Memory Model F3-2133C10Q-32GZM
                              or
                          G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM
                          DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C9Q-32GXM
                              or 
                          Crucial Ballistix Sport 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM
                          DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model BLS4KIT8G3D1609DS1S00

where all three are good but no where near as good and reliable as the hyperX beast but way better than the vengeance .... is that correct

Look ! It is literally the fastest ram you can afford that is supported by the mb. Hint 2133 is very noticable in everyday use against 1600.

No. I am saying, that if your goal is to save money, you can go with the crucial and have the same performance. You can go even cheaper and still lose almost nothing.
You can go with the Ripjaws Z for the higher frequency.
My point is you have a choice...
If i was to choose between the corsair and the beast i would have taken the beast.
If i have to choose between all those models, however, i will take the 2133 Ripjaws Z, because it's high frequency with fairly tight timings of C10... And Gskill is quality brand.

my goal isn't saving money but rather performance, stability and longevity

so should that be G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133
and will the live long and prosper i mean i know that the hayperx bests don't fail are the G.SKILL Ripjaws Z just as reliable
