Found 16gb of dominator platinum (3000mhz) for about 150 pounds on amazon and was wondering if it's worth it over regular corsair LP vengeance at same frequency as this is the cheapest iv seen it. Any thoughts are welcome thanks !

It looks nicer and gives you bragging rights? Though I personally love the look of the dark grey/black G.Skill Ripjaws V a lot more... It's just personal preference IMO.

Only worth it for the looks, if you are going for a color theme (blue, green, red, whatever) Dom Plats are some of the EASIEST memory to spray paint or plastidip to mod because of the detachable top bar.
