I am going to upgrade to a i5 8600k later in the year but I have some questions about ram.

As RAM prices are increasing what speed of ram would you recommend? I can get 16gb of trident z rgb 3000 MHz for £150 but does the speed matter that much, if not I could get some lower speed ram and save some £££
