I am building a PC intended for gaming. I plan on playing CS:GO, PUBG and Rust, as well as some other newer games, possibly Battlefield 1. I am wondering if I should buy 8 GB of 3000Mhz DDR4 (2x4GB) Corsair Vengeance or 16GB of 1600Mhz DDR3 (2x8GB) Kingston Fury. I am looking for the best performance in gaming, and perhaps a bit of live streaming. I do not intend to edit video. My main focus is just the best gaming performance.

Here are links to the RAMs:
Corsair: https://www.umart.com.au/newsite/goods.php?id=32756
Kingston: https://www.umart.com.au/newsite/goods.php?id=28641

If it helps, my other specs are:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600
GPU: MSI GTX 1060 6GT
HDD: 1TB HDD
PSU: Corsair CX550M
MOBO: AB350M-HDV

Thanks in advanced! :)

You can...


You can only use DDR4 ram in that motherboard, so out of those 2 options you listed, you only have one choice, however, id still recommend trying to get 16gb of DDR4 if possible.
