Both are 1600/9, but the Corsair is at the more standard 1.5 volts while the Kingston requires 1.65 per their specs (A bit ridiculous for basic 1600/9 sticks, when most (over 90% of all 1600 sticks use 1.5 or less, including the higher performance CL8 and CL7 sets)

I will OC the RAM so ill save my £4 and also it looks ugly I prefer black and red personally. Also what difference would 0.15v make and how would it effect the system?

"Cas Latency" which is the lower the better :)

You can also look at the regular Vengeance 2x4GB 1600MHz CL9 1.5v
