1866 - 2133 is the nice spot at the moment for games, rendering, editing, etc. However, it does not give that much of a performance increase so if you can get a 1600 kit for a great deal then definitely pick that up. I would generally recommend an 1866 CL9 Kit. Also, the higher kits normally run at 1.65v which is not an issue. The 1.5v is just another safeguard but much of the earlier memory and the higher end kits run at 1.65v without an issue. Try to stick to 1.5v though for anything below 2400 as most kits that are not older run at this voltage.
