I have an AMD A10 7870k APU and I need ram and I was wondering what /g/ think. My options are 16gb 1600mhz (2x8) or 8gb 2400mhz (2x4)

You're not going to utilize 16gb of ram and apus are dog shit when they have slow ram. Get the 8gb kit of 2400 and dedicate 2gb of it as video ram.

You want high bandwidth and dual rank. This kit is perfect:

Be sure to manually set your vcore in BIOS. Only needs 1.25v at stock clock, and most all of them undervolt pretty well. You absolutely need to do this to make sure your mobo is delivering unnecessarily high voltage which will enduce VRM throttling.

Fuck what a c u c k

16GB, amount trumps clock speed in this case. 8GB won't be enough some day soon.

>8GB won't be enough some day soon
>most peasants still have 4GB

yah sure totally. also 1000watts some be enough real soon, better upgrade to 2000watts right now, cant see any reason why not its not like prices go down as time goes by or something.

16GB

speed doesnt matter

Did you even look at a single chart?

Now read this:

Matters if you have an APU. You should stay out of that thread if you don't know things as obvious as this.

It's not like OP is dumb enough to play gayms on it, with more RAM he could potential work better though.

It's silly enough to get an APU, the next step barely matters.
