dominator platinum is expensive
get G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB 1600
beside its same speed
those are quality rams even I got them.
Going higher than 1600mhz doesn't give any noticeable performance increase compared to the hole made in your pocket.
Ivybridge doesn't need high speed memory modules.
Thanks
 
What usage are you playing to do?

An 2x4gb kit would be fine for just gmaing, only need to set up if you're doing things like encoding or editing.

There is a very cheap patriot 1866mhz 2x4gb kit for $48, same price as the cheapest 1600mhz 2x4gb kit.
You can grab two of these kits if you're looking for 16gb of ram
