Hi friends,
My MOBO came in and buying memory now.

Does it matter if I buy:
4 individual 16Gb DDR4 ECC 2133 CL15 Rank 1 = at $227.99 each x 4 for $911.43
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820242018

Vs

64GB (16GB x 4 KIT) DDR4 ECC 2133 CL15 Rank 1 = $960.49 for the whole kit

Does buying as kit have any advantage bc maybe they were tested together or can I save $50 buy buying individual 16 DIMMs at $227.99 each x4 for $911.43.

Just sanity check
Thanks

If there is a matched set available, I always recommend using it. You know that the manufacturer tested those parts as a group. The only bad part is, that if you have to RMA, you return the whole set...
