Thinking about getting some memory, top choices?

[Desync]

Been looking at some memory, I currently have 16gb 4x4gb ddr3 1066 installed.

3 sticks is from best buy, their cheap PNY DDR3 with the gold casing around it, and 1 stick is some A-Data DDR3 memory.

I checked up on newegg and seen the G.Skill Ripjaws was the most reviewed item and was wondering if it really was worth buying?

Then I came across this

Patriot Viper 3 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PV316G160C0K


Just wondering what you all would recommend to someone wanting some more memory.

If you want the most bang for a little more bucks then try to find yourself some 1866 MHz it's really gonna show compared to 1066.

There you go same memory but better speed jump on that deal while it's there 20% off and free shipping. If you have dual channels you can get to 16GB for not much more than what you were planning to spend.

Oh and by the way a full array of memory is gonna look good beside your water loop. I know I like the looks of my 4x4GB Corsair...

It's made of actual PC3-12800 chips, just like faster rated Patriot Intel Extreme Master PC3-17000:
