what would be best for my system i am going for 16gb of ram but idk ifi should get 2x8gb or 4x4gb the priceing of both are the sametimeings and speed is all the same i was only thinking of 4x4 because it will fill up the empty slots and make the system look nicer and differents? i like info!
thanks

no, but if you ever want to transfer the memory to a different build that only has 2 slots (like ITX) then the 2x8 is better than 2x4. considering the prices and current availability, i'd go 2x8 if the budget allows 100% of the time 60% of the time.
