Hey guys, I was just wondering if you could help me decide between 2 different memory kits, and which you'd consider better in the long run.

Both Corsair Dominator platinum, but the choice is between -

32GB (4x8gb sticks) C17 @ 3733mhz

or 64GB (4x 16gb) C16 @ 3466mhz

I'm wondering if the 64gb kit with tighter timings might be better. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
 
Solution
then 32GB of ram will serve you better than 64GB will, as explain earlier its slightly faster , and if your not doing video editing or massive 3d designing, you will have no use for the 64GB of ram.
I guess it depends on your application and budget.

Will 32 gb capacity be sufficient? Sven though the 32 gb kit is faster, the performance are negligible for the most part. Likely they are all Samsung b die, Do they offer the samilar dollar per gb figure?

Budget isn’t an issue. Gaming and casual use. Mostly going for the screw it type build. Again these are Corsair dominator platinum kits - just trying to get an opinion as it’s one of those builds where it’s okay to have nonsense and unnecessary parts.
