Advice on Laptop RAM

[Orangegroves]

I am looking to increase my laptops memory from 8GB to 16GB and have narrowed it down between two different sets:

Patriot Viper 16GB (2x8GB) 2400 (15-15-15-35) at $102

or 

Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) 2400 (16-16-16-39) at $120

 

I feel like the Patriot would be the better purchase here, but i don't know anything about their reliability or quality. Also, since i would be running in dual channel would I be running at the 2400 or would I only be running at 2133 (this part was confusing to me)? my CPU is the i5-7300hq.

 

Thanks in advance.

Laptop ram is not the same as desktop ram. What you have listed won't work. I recommend using this: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148614

Thank you. Can you explain to me why so I can understand better (sorry for my ignorance). When I went to Newegg and used their memory finder and entered my laptop model those were two of the models they gave me. My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7567) Below are the links to the RAM:

 

Patriot

Corsair

Both should work. Just run a memory diagnostic tool after installation to make sure stability is rock solid.

Between the two you listed I would go with the Vengeance purely for the fact that they have more reviews but they are pretty much the same

OK, phew. Haha. I was about to be really confused and thought maybe i had the wrong pin count or something. Any recommendations between the two or on Patriot?
