Absolutely no difference. When you pick ram just pick a colour you like.

 

Ram is ram. I'd go for Kingston since I love that brand, but in the end it doesn't change anything.

And I like Crucial. gg.

Nothing special about RAM

Just pick based on aesthetics more than anything else. Higher speed offers almost nothing except in synthetic benchmarks.
