Hello

I have been looking at thiese rams
CORSAIR 8GB DDR4 2666MHz Kit (2x4GB) Vengeance LPX
CMK8GX4M2A2666C16
G.Skill - F4-2400C15D-8GRR - Ripjaws 4 RR

I will use the msi x99a mpower and the i7 5820k
The gskill is a bit slower it also costs less but looks better
The corsair seems nice too in terms of build quality

As i will be gaming on it ramspeeds dont really matter to me but reliability and quality does
Also i would like to add 2 more stick for quad channel ram (the same ram but later like 2-3 weeks) will that work with thiese?

Which ram would you recommend for my system?


Thank you

Corsair always used to have a good reputation for reliability - I read an article around 2004 that said they had one of the lowest return-and-found-to-be-dud rates. I had some of their XMS DDR2 in my old PC for 8 years without a problem, and have Vengeance Pro DDR3 in my new one - they seem to be of sturdy construction. G-Skill haven't really been around over here for very long, so can't really comment on their stuff. They seem to have a good reputation though.

Turned out gskill is out of stock :/
(I ordered it and somebody from the shop contacted me that its out they just forgot to write it on the web page)
CMK8GX4M2B3000C15R
But this is relatively low price
Is there a reason the Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3000MHz Kit2 CL15 8GB red variant is much cheaper than the black or its just the colour?
 
I will just stick to corsair the gskill was like 1% cheaper that doesnt really matter and i cant buy it anyway
if this is a good ram too i will have no problems 😀
Thank you for the help
