Hi everyone
I am upgrading my pc and can not choose between those 2 ram options:
1) kingston hyperX 16Gb (2x8) 1866MHz CL10
2) corsair vengeance 16Gb (2x8) 1600MHz CL9
What set of Kingston and what CPU and mobo? If looking at the Fury line from Kingston, they run off PnP so need a compatible mobo/chipset. Also will want to be sure your MC (memory controller) can handle the data rate

Well yes i look at hyper x series( those to be exact http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104463). My motherboard is an asrock extreme4 z97 and my cpu is either an i7 4790k or an i5 4590(i plan to upgrade my cpu also, i do not know the exact amount of money i can spent so it is one of those)
If you don't plan to overclock, the faster RAM is not necessary and you'd be better of with a 4590 and an H97 motherboard. Better yet, budget allowing, get a Xeon E3-1231 V3.
