It really depends on what you do, if you do a lot of multi-tasking, running apps for imaging, video, CAD, GIS, running VMs etc then Yes the higher freq DRAM is well worth it - though for good 2400/10 I'd look at the GSkill Tridents or Snipers both are stronger sticks
the 2400 unless it close to the 1600 cost is wasted money. toms and others did a tests with some 3000 speed ram. and an intel cpu. they found that real world speed vs cost any ram over 1866 speed you were paying more for the ram then getting back in performance.
