RAM is RAM.

 

It works or it doesn't. Even the difference in speeds you wouldn't really notice a difference. Go on newegg and I would buy the most reviewed DDR4 that has the look you like. $200 can get you plenty, I would go for 16GB (any more than that is mostly a waste unless you have some very specific heavy workloads).

Made a list of components for my new PC, but, embarrassingly, I still do not know what to look for in RAM, and components need to be bought soon whilst I have little free time, and I am thus requesting help. It needs to be DDR4 and needs to perform for the price, speaking of which, my maximum price is 200.

 don't spend 200 dollars on RAM. Ever.

TFW you bought DDR4 right when it came out and paid $200 for 16GB super basic crucial DDR4
