Is it worth an extra $18 Canadian going from 2666Mhz to 2933Mhz RAM?

I was thinking of upgrading my new Dell XPS 9500's 8gb of ram to 32gb of ram, the processor is the i7-10yada-yada-yada if it somehow matters. The most intensive thing I'm doing is running VM(s) with VMware for Eve-NG to practice my cisco networking.

 

My choice 

 

Recommended by someone else

 

Note: I realize the recommended RAM by someone else is actually 3200MT/s but the laptop is probably going to downclock it so it's semantics.

It's not a deal breaker if you don't go for the higher frequency ram. However if you can, you should, considering that it doesn't cost that much more.

Yes, even if you don't run it at it's faster speed, it'll be more stable.

It must be true, I read it on the internet...
