Question My notebook memory only runs at 2400mhz, which one to buy?

[Henrique Cota]

Hey guys, I have an ASUS notebook model TUF Gaming FX705DT, currently it contains a DDR4 8gb memory, 2666mhz, CL 19. However, because of the Ryzen processor 5 3550H it only uses 2400mhz, CL 17 memory.

I would like to add another 8gb of memory but the question is which one to buy. Should I look for a 2666mhz CL 19 or one with 2400mhz CL17? I have the option to buy two 2666mhz CL 19, because the price is cheap, bearing in mind that I would like to use them as dual channel.

Get a 2x kit of 2400 or 2666 either one should work.
