Since 1866 and even 2133 setsare oft the same price, I'd suggest you get the best you can for the buck.
Starting w/ DDR3-1600 CAS 9 as the minimum and looking just at newegg s as to provide as little variability as possible:
$143 Mushkin DDR3-CAS 9-9-9-24

$160 Gskill Ripjaws DDR3-1600 CA 9-10-9-28 (lil slower)

=========================================
$160 Gskill Ripjaws DDR3-1866 CA 9-10-9-28
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231615
$179 Mushkin DDR3-1866 CA 9-9-9-27 (lil faster but maybe not $19 worth)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226382
===========================================
$170 Mushkin DDR3-2133 CA 9-9-9-27
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226420
$185 Gskill DDR3-2133 CA 9-11-11-?

=================================================
Now looking at those..... the Gskill goes out the window at 1600 as the 1866 is same price. I like the Mushkin 1866 better than the Gskill but for $19, I don't like it that much. Then again for $17 over the DDR3-1600 Mushkies, the Gskill 1866 may not be all that attractive either. At $10 more for the Mushkin 2133 over the Gskill 1866, I like that extra $10 investment better than the $17 jump from 1600 to 1833.
So in each category, ya gotta like the ones in bold. $27 for the jump from 1600 to 2133 makes a lil more sense than the $17 jump from 1600 to 1866 but I'd be hard pressed to say any of the bold ones is a bad decision.
Of course if ya shop around, you will likely find better deals and if ya look tomorrow, it could all switch up.
