putting together a new rig to replace my aging 6700k system.

5800x (as the 5900x appears to be made out of unicorns atm) on probably an MSI 570 tomahawk or Asus tuf x570+ 3080fe and a evga supernova g2 750w psu.

assuming that the kits below were all within £10 of each other which would you go for?

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/cors...zen-tuned-ddr4-memory-dual-kit-my-4ck-cs.html

the obvious difference is that one is rated at cl17 vs cl18, with that said I'm not that familiar with Kingston ram whereas I've run corsair for years. I'm likely to spend some time tweaking the speeds and timings so perhaps one kits is friendly from that POV?

the corsair also comes in a 2x32gb kit which i've found at a tempting price that would leave 2 slots for further expansion.

Any help to get over the pontifications would be appreciated :D

The above if you say you found them cheap for 64GB and need 64GB. If not get the Kingston c17, your first link if you have no real use for 64GB.

Or these :-

They can be found for £148.51 at another e-tailor right now too. OCUK seem to think they cost £220 when they are even £155 free shipping at corsair direct.
