What's your budget?
What is your prefered color scheme?
What do you usually do? Gaming? Editing? Streaming?

I[strike] have seen 2400 mhz RAM modules, but I see they are all cas 11 which isnt as fast as CAS 9, i would recommend you find a 2133 MHZ kit with cas 9.[/strike] And also i would wait a bit to upgrade your system. The new X99's and DDR4 have been released and a DDR4 2133 module is faster than a DDR3 2133 module, but then again that is my personal preference. And why do you need to upgrade your ram? That Kingston is a good kit unless they died.

EDIT: HOL UP! I found you a module

That is 2400 mhz cas 9 and the (2X8) is cas 11(slower but has enough for what you might need done) why didnt i notice it? XD here you go man, I would wait to upgrade, but then again that is my personal preference.

CL9,2133 MHz and 16GB of RAM,which is plenty for anything.This was selected just for futureproofing.

All the best.
