I dont recommend buying some no name brands, especially because they arent priced that much lower.

Where i live the corsair ones are only 5€ more then the chinese poops. I think from the known brands, the corsairs at 2400MHz is the one to go to.

I am here to learn, please correct me if im wrong or you see me putting bs on your screen!

There's no difference between Corsair and the "Chinese poops" though, except maybe in warranty terms.
