Wondering what are some good memory kits to get for an overclocked 6850k + does dual vs quad matter?

Really only need/want to pay for 16GB so I could go 4x4 for quad of 2x8 if it doesn't matter.

Thanks!

Definitely go for quad channel. The best memory to get is the Samsung B die ICs, but mostly top of the line expensive memory have those. My G.Skill Trident Z DDR4-3200 CL 14-14-14-34 CR1 easily does DDR4 3400 at CL 15-15-15-34 CR1 at stock voltage! It could easily do DDR4-3600 CL16 I'm sure at 1.4v, but I'd rather stay at stock voltage.
