I considering buying an MSI GD-80 board.
On the specs it says it will handle,2133 O'ced RAM.
What memory should I be looking at,in order to get this speed??

This would be what your looking for.
Im not super familiar with the impact of memory bandwidth on the 990FX platform. This might be way overkill.
I say it is overkill right now to go that high with the RAM.
Leaving the AMD team now aren't we. I am thinking about upgrading in the near future. I thought for sure bf3 was going to make me do it but my 955 is doing a great job.
If it will bottleneck my next GPU I will upgrade.
For gaming I would look more into low latency ram then high frequency. You probably will save a few bucks.
Thanks for the feedback.
BTW, I'm using that exact RAM on my recent build, no issue with it though I've yet to push it. Running at ~1666mhz right now, will push when I feel I need to...
