1 Hello,

5 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231529
6
7 G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900)
8 Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL10Q-32GBZL

10 I've since found out it is for "Intel".....

12
13 I have an FX8350 processor with this mobo:
14 GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
15
16
17 So will it damage the board, ram or processor?
18
19 I've nevered RMA anything to NewEgg. It's been
20 over 90 days since purchase, but less than 120.
21
22 Thoughts, scolding and recommendations are most warranted...

24 I have since found this ram:
25 G.SKILL Trident X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2400 (PC3 19200)
26 Desktop Memory Model F3-2400C10D-16GTX
27
28 That looks perfect for (overclocked?) FX8350 based system?

31 TIA,
