I will be getting Asus P7p55D-E Pro and i5 750 CPU. I want to get 4GB Ram. Which brand should I go for? SHould I get DDR3 1600Mhz or 1333 Mhz? Will the 1600Mhz run faster and hotter? many Thanks

I recommend G.SKILL Ripjaws in the 1600MHz category, they are an excellent product and have low timings too, as well as match the color of your asus board.

They run a little warm if you overclock them but honestly is not a real concern.
2x2GB also leaves you room to upgrade to 8GB later on.
Good luck!
