Just want to know if I should get the
"Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 Memory"
or the
"Crucial Ballistix Tactical 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory"

The DRR3 is 4,82ns and the DRR4 is 6,66ns. so the DRR3 is faster and the only reason I would get DRR4 is because it makes me feel cooler. So is it worth the extra money?
 
Solution
Between the 2 you listed, get the Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 Memory since your motherboard supports only DDR4. DDR4 and DDR3 don't have the same amount of pins (288 vs 240) and there's other reasons.


I know, I was getting a "Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3GHz 6-Core Processor" What I'm asking is should I get it but thanks anyway.
 


Well the X99 platform only supports DDR4 anyways.
