Hello people of Tom's Hardware!
I have a question, as I am contemplating which RAM I should get, obviously, I want the fastest one available. I am going to construct a Skylake PC in May, which consists of the Asus Z170 PRO Motherboard and the I7 6700K CPU.
However when it comes down to RAM, I am contemplating which one I should get.
This one is the first one which I believe is a CAS 15 2666 MHz RAM: http://www.corsair.com/en/dominator-platinum-series-16gb-4-x-4gb-ddr4-dram-2666mhz-c15-memory-kit-cmd16gx4m4a2666c15
The second one is a 2400MHZ CAS 10 RAM: http://www.corsair.com/en/dominator-platinum-series-16gb-4-x-4gb-ddr4-dram-2400mhz-c10-memory-kit-cmd16gx4m4b2400c10
I do not intent on overclocking, that is why I stick below 2666 RAM, I also don't think it is necessary to go anywhere above that considering I will be using that PC solely for gaming. I already have a GTX 980 TI within my computer, however I feel like I am being bottle necked by my current CPU, which is a Sandy Bridge i7.
So which one would be better for me?
