I was wondering if its worth it for me to upgrade my ram from 2133 to 2800 or more.

Specs:

Cpu: i5 6600k at stock clocks but I am planning to oc to 4.2
Gpu: gtx 1070 zotac amp edition
Mobo: z170 gaming 3 edition
Psu: evga supernova g2 850w
Ram: hyper x 2133mhz 16gb

Would I see a great impact in the games I play, enough of an impact to spend 100 on new 2800mhz ram? 95% of the time I'm on wow or cs. I play at 1440p if that matters.

Not sure if this is important but my current 2133mhz ram is cl14 while the 2800mhz ram I am looking at is cl16 (gskill ripjaws 4)
 
Solution
Not worth it.
Speed difference are negligible especially with cl16 on the higher clocked ram.
You already get max FPS in csgo with this build with ease
And should get very high FPS in wow as well
So it's basically just wasting money.
