[Avid-L2] New 27 Inch iMac Ram Size and Type?

 

Our lead AE just got a new 27 inch iMac for use with Avid primarily but certainly Adobe and Resolve down the line.  He got the minimum of 8GB knowing he would by cheaper 3rd party Ram. 

He asked for suggestions and I know of Crucial and OWC.  He is planning on getting 64GB.  He also mentioned there is a Ram speed rating and the OEM and most has a value of 17 but there is better faster Hyperian Ram with a value of 15.  Downside of the faster 15 Ram is it isn't compatible with the other type of Ram.

Anybody got some suggestions of vendors and if the faster Ram is going to make a noticeable performance boost?  I have 64GB on my old MacPro Cheese grater and it has worked fine.  Anything about the newer breed of iMacs that warrants something other than 64GB Ram.
