Just like Entomber said you're not going to see a noticeable difference. The only reason you'd want to get the higher speed memory is if you're planning to overclock your bus speed along with your cpu multiplier. Just about everyone will advise you to stick with the multiplier since it's easier and won't increase the risk of instability since overclocking the bus speeds everything up. I personally use a combination of both so to each their own :)

if you're strictly talking about value, you won't see an appreciable performance difference between DDR-1600 and DDR-2133, so just get the cheapest 16GB kit you can find (I know there's DDR-1600 16GB kits for around $110 or less)

You have the same CPU as me. What are the details behind your CPU OC?

Thanks!
