Best RAM for my setup ?

[policematrix]

I have been looking at upgrading my RAM to 16GB but I'm wondering what's best for my GTX 970 and i7 combo
Also will trimmings make a difference?
I have been looking at getting this RAM http://www.kingston.com/en/hyperx/memory/beast " 16 GB 2 sticks or 4 ? and which speeds and timings ?

I believe the 9-9-9 is best but again not sure about this

thanks.

What's it for? if for gaming, then you only really need the 1600mHz as you won't get any benefit from the higher Hz. Your board supports Dual Channel memory so would be best to get 2 x 8Gb. 9-9-9 would be best.

Ahh thanks and yes it is for games, I was going to go for the lower timings over speed so thanks again for clarification.
