Hello everyone. I am ready to order my i7 920 based machine.

The only thing I am unsure of though, is which RAM set I should go for. I know I've posted this a little while ago but I'm just so unsure, I really can't make up my mind as I know very little about RAM. I was hoping the Tom's Hardware elites could just simply explain which RAM set is better for me.

Which would be the better out of these sets?

OCZ 'FlexEX' 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel (OCZ3FXE1600C7LV6GK)

OCZ Gold 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C8 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel (OCZ3G1600LV6GK)

Corsair Dominator 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C8 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel (TR3X6G1600C8D)

OCZ Gold 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 2000MHz PC3-16000C10 Low-Voltage Triple Channel (OCZ3G2000LV6GK)

Can anyone explain which would be the best? Why? Can anyone suggest a better set?

The rest of my build is as follows (assuming I can get some cash :p)

CPU: Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping

Motherboard: Asus P6T Deluxe

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 260

Power: Corsair TX 750W

Thanks guys.

In my opinion the OCZ Gold 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 2000MHz PC3-16000C10 Low-Voltage Triple Channel (OCZ3G2000LV6GK) would be the best because it has the highest clock rating (2000mHz). However, I dont own it so can't vouch for its preformance.
