Which of these 16gb ram is better? Kingston vs Corsair

[achan070]

I want to upgrade my 8gb ram to 16gb for black ops 3. I've narrowed it to Kingston HyperX 16GB 1866MHz vs Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB 2400MHz. Which is the better buy?

Windows 7
i5 2500k
Gtx titan

What board do you have?

if there roughly the same price as i found on amazon then id go for the vengeance pro. keep in mind though that there isnt much benefit to be seen in games with ram speed that are higher than around 1866mhz as the price usually outweighs the 4 or 5 fps you would gain. but since in this case they are roughly the same price then go for the faster one.

also check to make sure you cpu and motherboard are compatible with the higher speed so youre not wasteing money on extra speed.

The Vengeance is the better set, but don't expect to run full 2400 with your CPU - you might with a good CPU OC, but most 2500Ks top out at 2133
