Good Gaming Memory

Corsair Vengeance is good memory but 16 is unnecessary for gaming. Games don't even fully utilize 8 gigs of ram, let alone 16, so if I were you, I'd save a couple of bucks and get an 8 gig set. Also make sure whatever set you get has a CAS Latency of 9.

As frequencies go up, cas latency goes up. Speed wise 1600mhz/cas9 is basically equal to 1866/cas10
