Solution
The Corsair I linked costs less.

Have a look at results of different speeds and make a decision

Wouldnt the one you suggested be slower than the other patriot sice the original one was 1866MHz, and also is the one i chose even compatible with the stuff?. I put the one i was thinking about on pcpartpicker.com and it said it was compatible with no problems found with all the other parts.
