as per title really, been thinking about getting new ram. especially as FC4 seems to push my RAM all the way to max. I currently have 2x4GB corsair vengeance @1600MHz. I can't decide if I should just buy 2 more sticks of that or go for 4x4GB @2133MHz? if it makes a difference it's Avexir core that I would be changing to, I want those LEDs bad aha.

so what do you guys think? stick with the vengeance and just leave it at that, or get what I've been lusting after and have higher speeds and aesthetics that I prefer.

Thanks for your help and thoughts :)

Even though you won't notice any difference, I would say get what you want, you won't be really happy with it until you do, so go for it. Does your motherboard CPU combination support it?

What CPU? Prob want a K model for 2133 unless you have maybe a strong 3770, and would go with a 2x8GB over 4x4GB (less stress on the MC (memory controller), look for 2133/9, the GSkill Ripjaws X and their Sniper line are both very good and reasonable
