I want to upgrade my ram from 8gb to 16gb. I have 2x4gb corsair vengeance 1600MHz right now. My motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 can handle up to 2200MHz ram speed (overclocked).
I want to get this:

Only $80 right now and it is 2400MHz. Could I just use these and set the ram speed in my bios to 2200MHz and it will run at that speed?
I would just use the same ram I have now but in the 2x8gb kit, but the 2400MHz is actually cheaper, and may be faster if I overclock it?
I have an i5 2500k overclocked to 4.5
Would there be any issue with this? Would I be better off just getting the 2x8gb version of the Corsair 1600MHz I already have?
