Which RAM kit should I get?

DIMM Kit 32GB, DDR4-3600, CL16-19-19-39

230€

 

VS

DIMM Kit 16GB, DDR4-3600, CL16-16-16-36

200€
 

Is it worth it to pay 30€ more and have less latencies but an additional 16GB?

clear winner if you can justify the need for 32gb.

I don’t necessarily need the additional 16GB yet but maybe investing an extra 30€ for furure proofing wouldn’t be a bad idea? I‘m not so sure.

I'd look at a different kit then.  The 16GB kit is too much and the 32 GB kit is overkill.  Find a 16 GB kit for a fair price.

Get the 2nd kit. Its 200$ because its Samsung Bdie and will do its rated speeds.

Its expensive for a reason.

Are you going to use the extra 30 for something else otherwise? If you've got no current need for 32GB you could spend the extra 30 somewhere else. However, if you can't really upgrade anything with that extra 30 then its just a choice between saving some money now or adding some future proofing. That said, 200 seems like a lot for only 16GB's.

If your using a ryzen processor then it might be worth getting 16GB and using some of the money you save to get a faster kit, I believe the "sweet spot" is 3733mhz for ryzen processors. Though if your using intel its probably not worth the money it would cost you.

Look for a cheaper B-Die, I recently found and bought TForce Night Hawk RGB 16GB 4000 CL18 B-die for like $125. Probably you don't even need the B-Die so imo you can look for a cheaper 16GB 3600
