I use G.Skill Trident Z Neo Series 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHz CL16, love it.

Honestly any DDR4-3600 CL16 kit from reputable brands will work great. I'd stick with G.Skill, Crucial, or Corsair. The sweet spot is 16GB for gaming or 32GB if you run lots of chrome tabs/applications. Just make sure to get a dual-channel kit (2 sticks) rather than single stick.
