Want to increase my RAM. need help!

[sobhanriazi]

Hey guys. I currently have 2x4gb ddr3 of Corsair ram on my motherboard and want to sell them and increase it to 2x8gb.
My MB is an Asus B85 PLUS, and my cpu is an I7 4790K. I have no idea about things like bus and other factors I have to consider before buying ram so I just want a little help to know what type of ram and from which brands can I buy. and can I go for ddr4?
my money is also limited. I can't buy very expensive models. I want the best ram possible in the middle range.
any help will be appreciated

The B85 PLUS only supports DDR-3 RAM, and your processor supports DDR3-1333/1600, DDR3L-1333/1600 @ 1.5V
My personal recommendation would be to buy two more sticks of the same 4GB Corsair RAM that you have now. This will save you some extra money, and you will still have 16gb of RAM in the end,
But if you want 2x8gb sticks so you can upgrade to 32GB down the line then buy these
Cheapest https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA5753KG5610&cm_re=2x8gb_ddr3_1333_1600-_-0RM-000V-002N2-_-Product
Middle: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313430
More Expensive https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16820211814
I'd go for the middle price point, those RAM sticks look nice and are 1600 instead of 1333, which means that they are faster. Happy shopping! Tell me what you pick.
