Hi,
If not concerned about RGB lighting and price isn't a concern, then the CAS15 would be the best option.

Thank you very much.
RGB is not important. I thought that maybe since the RGB are newer manufacturered they will overclock better than the rest.
Will try 4000MHZ relaxing the timings.
I also found this ones:
G.skill 2x8GB 3400mhz trident RGB CL17. 330€ (2018 model).
Price is much higher but guarantee 4000MHZ which is the limit of my motherboard.
Worth it?

3000MHz - 3200MHz @ CL15 is the sweet spot. Tbh I got 3600CL15 and regret it. I should have saved £100 or so and got a slightly cheaper kit but my 32GB was £450 at the time. I imagine it's come down a bit since then.

I read in forums that with the Coffee Lake the speed matters more than the CL. A bit confusing for me then.
Still the 3600 CL15 will be better than the 3200 CL15 right?
I just bought it a couple hours ago.

Hi.
I have 3 in list very similar to chose from. All Samsung b-die.
G.skill 2x8GB 3600mhz trident z CL15. 250€ (2016 model)
G.skill 2x8GB 3600mhz trident z CL16. 230€ (2016 model)
G.skill 2x8GB 3600mhz trident RGB CL16. 270€ (2018 model)
I don't care for the RGB but this modules are newer models (not sure if that will count for overclock headroom and performance).
Which one do you recommend?
8700K, Z370-E, Samsung 960 Pro, 2080 Strix.
Thank you.
