which IAM user was responsible = CloudTrail
I was initially a bit confused on what Config and CloudTrail actually do, as both can be used to track configuration changes. However, this explanation is probably the best one I have come across so far: "Config reports on what has changed, whereas CloudTrail reports on who made the change, when, and from which location" Since the question is which IAM user was responsible for making the changes, the answer is CloudTrail.
CloudTrail = which user made which api calls. This is used for audit purpose.
