Just wanted to see what everyone thinks would best fit the newest Dell XPS 15 9560 laptop with the i7-7700HQ Kaby Lake? The one that I purchased has 16GB of 2400Mhz RAM installed already.

I've seen that supposedly the Corsair Vengeance Performance Memory Kit 32GB DDR4 2666MHz CL18 Unbuffered SODIMM is rated as the best.

I'm looking to max out the laptop's capacity as I'll be doing things like 3D parts design, video/picture editing, and the usual computer stuff too. Possibly looking into playing some GTA 5 since I liked San Andreas.

No matter what you guys recommend, how much of a performance gain would you think I could expect?

Thanks ahead of time for any input you may have!

Hi, I have the xps 15 9550 and am receiving an upgrade from dell due to being sold a faulty pc over 11 months ago. I emailed them to ask if I could transfer the memory from the 9550 over to the 9560 and they responded:
"Unfortunately the memory from the XPS 9550 cannot be added to the new XPS 9560 as there is a variation on the sizes and the technology involved."

I'm not sure the article you provided may be of use for a 9560 user but here's hoping you can tell me it does.
