New pc - RAM

For the same price:


G.Skill Ripjaws 16GB DDR4-2400Mhz CL15

Or

Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4-2666 CL16

Or

HyperX Predator 16GB DDR4-2400MHz CL12

?

What about quality, which one is the best?
Which one could last more?

First question -- are any of the 3 listed on the qualified memory list from your motherboard manufacturer? If so then I ALWAYS go with the one the manufacturer has tested.

Now I found also:
Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB DDR4-2400MHz CL16
35£ cheaper than the other three.

Each of these four memories is in the list of qualified memory of mobo Gigabyte GA-X99-UD4.

Which of these four?

The 2400 CL12 will have the best performance at 2400 and the cheapest will have the lowest performance. The 2666 will probably have the overall best performance. The total contribution to your overall performance is just a few percent difference (a few FPS). You might benchmark better with one over the other but real-world differences will be negligible.

Double check all the non-performance factors -- CPU cooler clearances, color, etc. I think it will come down to if you think the extra performance is worth the extra cash.

Yeah, I got it... So the HyperX should be the best.
And what about brands, are these four at the same quality level?

I personally have only purchased Crucial and Corsair, but I believe these are all respected brands in the community.
