If you have Sandy Bridge, it'll just underclock it automatically for you. So it'll run on 1333mhz on 1.5v instead of the 1600 on 1.6v. Also, depends on the mobo, but that's what usually happens. If...

I didn't look at the detailed specs. I didn't realize that they offered the same ram with different CAS. Mine is the Ripjaw X, but I have a CAS of 9 @ 1600.
Does the project info change based on...

I'm fine with having a processor and mobo that are overkill. And yes I do rip a lot of DVDs/BluRays.

Good advice. More to the point, even that 3570K and Z77 are overkill for an HTPC. Unless you're using Handbrake a lot you'll never see the difference between that and an i3.

Everyone's definition of a HTPC varies. Some do a little gaming on theirs also, but where you really need horsepower is if you do any kind movie ripping/converting. It's way more demanding than any...

Damn, I hope the 8GB stick drops to 20 bucks. I would swoop it in a heart beat and load up 32GB in my rig. Hot damn!

I appreciate the info! I'm going to go ahead and pull the trigger on this. Even if the price for 8GB drops to $20, that's only $10 off this deal.
