Both have near identical timings and speed so if you don't care about the size or appearance then go with whichever is cheaper when you buy it. However if you plan on going with after market cpu coolers (air coolers), go with the G.Skill. They are physically shorter and will give you less of a problem with large heatsinks.

I just don't get it why people still compare RAM's, a RAM is a RAM,, all what matters is the speed of it, everything else is marketing.

Both are comparable in performance. But I had seen a few better reviews for RipjawsX. Choose any of them based on your budget. Both will work well. But if you are only going to use the rig for gaming, 8 GB of RAM will be more than enough. 16GB will help if you are doing any video editing, 3D modeling or rendering. Otherwise, 16GB is overkill.
