RAM sticks, help

[wolfyyy23]

Performance wise what is better? 4X4 16GB Ram @ 1600 or 2X8 16GB Ram @ 1600? Both CAS @ 9. Is there any difference?

4x4 on quad channel and 2 x 8gb on dual channel.

you want 4 x 4 GB - 16 GB is way more than enough. Same level of performance from 4 x 2 GB sticks though. It is all about 4 sticks of RAM so amazing.
