I am building a PC especially for gaming (no overclocking)

Which ram should I search the Corsair LPX 3200Mhz or less Mhz please?

Also 4x8gb (Quad channel) or 2x16gb?

Thank you!

Whatever your motherboard manufacturer has already tested (Quailified Vendor List) or what the memory manufacturer recommends for your board. Some RAM works in all four slots, and some RAM only works in two slots. If you have a z170 motherboard, the performance difference between 4 sticks and 2 sticks is nill.

Ram is cheap right now, so might as well get DDR4 3000 or DDR4 3200 because its usually only a few dollars more than the slower stuff.

What do you do with your PC where you need 32 Gb of RAM?
