Ok so i have this gaming PC which i've been working on for a while. As of now, these are my current Specs:
MoBo: MSI H270 Gaming M3 (i know this supports DDR4 RAM up to 2400 MHz and will speed down faster memories)
CPU: Intel Core I7 - 7700
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 SC 8 Gb
RAM: XPG Gammix D10 1 x 8 Gb DDR4 2666 MHz CL 16 (i know this isn't enough)
SSD: ADATA SP550 - 110 Gb (Windows 10 OS only)
HDD: Toshiba DT01ACA100 - 1 Tb (everything else)
CPU cooler: ThermalTake NiC C4
Power source: EVGA 500W 80 plus
So, with these stuff, the games (like battlefield 1 and titanfall 2) work good enough most of the time, but i can't have anything else running because it starts to lag or freeze. I know I'm lacking RAM and i've been checking some 2x8 Gb kits bit can't decide which one to get:
1. Patriot Viper 4 Series DDR4 16GB (2 x 8GB) 3000MHz Kit (couldnt' find the CAS latency for this set anywhere): i found an amazing deal on amazon for just US$90, but i'm not sure if it is compatible with my MoBo
2. Patriot Viper Elite Series DDR4 16GB (2 x 8GB) 2400MHz CL 15 Kit: i found them for US$ 166 on amazon... pretty sure they fit my MoBo, but if the Viper 4 Series are compatible... well, they are almost 50% off!!!
3. Ballistix Sport LT 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR4 2400 MHz CL 16 Kit: US$170 on amazon, so no big difference in prices with the Viper Elite kit.
So, which one would you get?
