Kind of a loaded question, but what I aim for is...

AMD builds => DDR3-1866 CL8 / CL9 1.5v (low latency)
Intel builds => DDR3-1600 CL7/CL8 1.5v (low latency)

No modules over 1.5v and no modules with tall heat spreaders (they get in the way of aftermarket CPU coolers and can impede airflow). The Vengeance modules perform fine, but are expensive and have the tall heat spreaders. Pricing usually has things pointed toward GSkill Ares or Crucial Ballistix.
