Hi forum!

I'm thinking about buying new RAM but I'm not sure which one of these kits:
(These are Dutch websites by the way)

Corsair Vengeance Pro Blue, 16GB 1866Mhz
http://nl.hardware.info/productinfo/188253/corsair-vengeance-pro-blue-16gb-ddr3-1866-cl9-kit

G.skills RipjawsZ 16GB 2133Mhz
https://maxict.nl/product/3390764/g...eakers&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=pricewatch

So my Z77 mpower motherboard is on the compatibility list of the G.skills. The vengeance pro's only tell me they are designed for 3rd and 4rd gen. i5 and i7s, so I'm not expecting difficulties either. And the G.skills have some more megahertz, what do you guys think?
 
Would personally grab the Corsair kit. If you're just gaming, you're not really going to see much of a performance increase after 1866MHz. The Corsair kit is at 1.5 Volt which would probably leave you with a bit more overclocking headroom on the CPU, where the G.Skill kit is 1.6 Volt.

Tbh, any DDR3 RAM will work on a motherboard that supports it. Most chips even come out of the same factories :p
