RAM buying advice

[Mediaslave]

SO I just bought an ASUS p6t6 WS Revolution board (ASUSTeK Computer Inc.), and an i920 processor. Now I have to fill it with RAM. I am not very up to date on RAM, so I was hoping somebody could give me some advice on the best ram to get for a machine dedicated to heavy photoshop work (illustration and photos) and 3d animation? Of course, theres a damn good amount of gaming goin on too. (5870 2gb, waiting on you!)

I would prefer OCZ stuff, just because I've dealt with them before and gotten excellent service, but I am open.

Thanks in advance.

Re: RAM buying advice

You can check this list: P6T6 WS REVOLUTION DDR3 2000 Qualified Vendors List (QVL), it seems that the highest clock certified/qualified is 2000mhz. OCZ is there but comes only in 1GB per stick dual channel package namely OCZ3FXT20002GK CL8 at 1.9v. It's fast enough IMO.

Other than that, there's a benchmark out there with Corsair Dominator GT 2000Mhz, CMG6GX3M3A2000C8 running at 2280Mhz 8-9-8-22 2T at 1.90v. Highest maybe.
