RAM 2X16 OR 2X8 WITH BETTER MHZ

[xnnamles]

So i decided to make an ram upgrade at my rig

so i have a question for you guys.

 

Right now im using an gskill 1x16gb 2400mhz ram with cl17 latency

should i buy 2x8gb with better mhz like 3000/3200 and latency cl16

or should i go another 1x16 and do 2x16 with 2400mhz and cl17 latency

 

Thanks for the help !

What CPU

All of these configs will result in 3 sticks which means it will most likely result in single channel 

Unless your planning on replacing the current stick 

What cpu ?

Go for the 2x8 gig kit 

16 gigs is enough for 99% of the tasks 

Plus you will benefit alot more with higher frequency

btw i have only 2 slots on my motherboard

i want to get the dual channel performance thats why i want to do a ram upgrade.

i can buy another 16gb or i can go with 2x8gb better mhz and latency
