I'm building my own PC and I've ordered all the parts except the RAM and I don't know what to get. I was going to get Team - Vulcan 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 but it was out of stock at the only place I could find it cheap enough and now it's too expensive for me. I'm looking to get 16gb (in any form, doubt I'll be looking to get more) so if anyone has any recommendations on a way to do this which is fairly cheap (budget of but still efficient enough and compatible with my system then that would be great. This is what I'm getting:

CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor (£186.00 @ Amazon UK)
Motherboard: ASRock - AB350 Pro4 ATX AM4 Motherboard (£80.92 @ Novatech)
Storage: Samsung - 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (£84.95 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Western Digital - Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£42.39 @ CCL Computers)
Video Card: Zotac - GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 3GB Mini Video Card (£180.49 @ Amazon UK)
Case: NZXT - S340 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case (£57.60 @ Aria PC)
Power Supply: EVGA - B3 550W 80+ Bronze Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

Thanks in advance for any help/advice! :)

GSkill units are tried and tested to perform better... https://www.toptengamer.com/best-ram-amd-ryzen-5-7-cpu/

Perhaps if you can specify your total build budget we can adjust the parts without compromising performance.

Oh yeah sorry, I meant to put that in. Unfortunately the most I can go is £140 and I don't really want to go quite that high if I can avoid it.

There you go... https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/ZskwrH/gskill-memory-f43000c15d16gtzb
Thats within your budget. But if you want ot cut corners, ditch that Samsung 250gb and get something cheaper. Aint worth paying so much for just a few secs gain. Also there are good PSU and cases at cheaper rates.

Ok thanks for the advice. I think what I might do is have a look at the GSkill units you suggested in your original post and buy 8gb now and then another 8 when I get paid again, which shouldn't be too long. Thanks :)
