Hi all!
I'm going to buy RAMs for my ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII EXTREME LGA1151 and it has only four slots, I have never looked into latency before and a friend of mine told me it matters a lot but I realized the more Mhz the higher the Latency goes .. and iam confused because i read everywhere that the lower the latency the better soo -.-? can someone tell me should I go for higher mhz or I find the lowest latency? and I only have 4 slots on the motherboard which is a downside but after researching it appears its the best LGA 1151 motherboard and it goes well with the 6700K processor correct me if I'm wrong. I just need the best build.
so far options :

G skill ripjaw,
corsair dominator plantinum

I'm not sure why g skill is so cheap compared to corsair dominator plantinum
and there are so many G skill options not sure which one is the best..
I just need the best x4 Rams for my motherboard money is not an issue so don't consider it
as a factor please
I will run the rams at its stock speed
THANKS ALOT

Here's an article that describes latency vs speed.

Kinda confirms  my understanding that speed is more important than the latency.  Big%20Smile
