    HyperX and Corsair Vengeance RAM worth the extra $$ over regular RAM?

    I'm upgrading my AW15 R1 and came out with HyperX and Corsair gaming-esque RAM modules for a bit more than non flashy RAM modules on amazon so I was wondering is the extra cash is worth it and if the performance is noticeably better.

    Also, another thing, bought a 1tb ssd from sandisk (ultra II) and I was wondering if I should get a m2 ssd of about 256gb for programs or if I should stick to one drive.
