I'm thinking to buy new RAM (for Lenovo 320 15AST, motherboard is LNVNB161216).
I had 4GB, I need 8GB.
My current RAM is "m471a5143sb1 2400Mhz, CAS (CL) 17, PC19200".

I was looking at two with such specs:
"Crucial [CT8G4SFD8213] 2133 Mhz, PC17000, 15-15-15-36"
VS
"Patriot Signature [PSD48G240081S] 2400 Mhz, PC19200, 17".
First is a bit cheaper, has frequency that no more that baseboard provides, lower latency, but lower PC (also I'm not sure which PC my baseboard provides).
 
Better go for 2400 MHz one. Latency difference is very small, but clock is 12.5% faster.
