Is ram just ram?

Solution
RAM has certain things about it that make it better, Speed is one like a 1600mhz stick compared to a 3200mhz stick more than likely the 3200mhz stick is better it really depends on the CAS Latency lower CAS latency the better. when buying PC parts I recommend using Pcpartpicker and finding the best price per gb stick and one with decently low cas latency. but most brands are not just bettter, I usually don't like to buy anything plain. I want something that looks nice.

It's not "nice" sorry to say its a pretty budget board, but it will work just fine if you don't overclock :p Anyways looking at that motherboard it can only support up to 2133Mhz DDR4 Ram, So I'd suggest:

8gb: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TY6A1P0/?tag=pcpapi-20

16gb: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TY6A1LY/?tag=pcpapi-20

That memory will work and just default to 2133 instead of 2400.
