personally i'd wait for 2016 for the new architecture. save some penneies and stick with gen4.....
i think the only real value to ddr4 memory is its low energy impact and efficiency for servers. it might look faster but it has a longer latency timer so over all there is no speed increase for gaming. I could be wrong but thats what i read so far.
