Which one of those 4 dual channel 8gb memories is the best , and is there a better option in this price range ? Corsair Vengeance vs G.Skill Sniper F3-14900CL9D vs G.Skill ARES F3-1600C9D vs G.Skill F3-12800CL9D

I generally always go with GSkill as they run what they should, they always have OC headroom, have a lifetime warranty (thankfully I've never had to use it (which is another good point, no failures))....Used to use Corsair a lot, but picked up some bad sticks, had some failures, they do a lot with high voltages on lower end sticks, just not a fan of them anymore

it's the same, only thing that really differ is the warranty (some have lifetime, other 10 years, etc...) and choose one with the color that fit your rig, that's it, the price can be a factor too but generally they're price really similar for the same speed...

i would choose this kit as it's 1866 CL9 G.Skill F3-14900CL9D (if the same price)

If i were to chose between 1866mhz sticks only , will the g.skill sniper still be the better option (ahead of corsair vengeance at 1866mhz , etc) ?
