The mobo supports DDR3 and all the kits you listed appear to be DDR3 and compatible, though I would use the G.Skill Ares

Thanks @jerm1027 :D i was kind of afraid of the chipset and stuff ...

If you do get faster ram than the chipset can handle (which I don't believe is the case here), then the RAM will automatically downclock to a support speed.

I keep reading about RAM compatibility and had a question as well.

I'm looking at an MSI MPower and 16GB G.Skill Sniper (http://www.gskill.com/products.php?index=544) and have been doubting myself.

DDR3 DIMM is DDR3 DIMM right?

yeah that RAM will work in that Motherboard

When buying RAM check the mother board specs, it should always show what type of RAM is supports (eg DDR3) along with the speeds of RAM it supports (eg 1333MHz). Then you buy RAM accordingly as they also show these numbers.

Also the mobo specs will say something like "channel supported - dual channel" all this means is that two RAM slots on the mobo are desighned to work together. On a 2 slot board its just the two slots, on a 4 slot board they will be diff colored (eg 2 blue and 2 white) this means that when you buy your Dual channel memory kit youl get two sticks of RAM that you place in the same color slots (ie both in blue or both in white).
