Help deciding on an OC'd bundle

[Caimbeul]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on this one for me please. Would there be any real world/ difference for gaming between the following two systems. There is about £55 difference between the two.

For £429

Intel 2500k OC'd to 4.5Ghz
Asus P8P67 (Rev B3)
8GB Mushkin Silverline #996770 (2x4GB) DDR3 1333MHz 9-9-9-24
Be Quiet Dark rock CPU cooler

Or the exact same setup but with
8GB Mushkin Blackline 1600MHz , CAS 9-9-9-24 Timings, 1.65v VDIMM
and a similar cooler for £479

The OC'd result is the same so i cant really see any reason for spending that bit more...

Many thanks for your help in advance!

The RAM speed increase will make no noticeable performance increase except in benchmarks so go for the cheaper option. I assume this is the deal offered by Aria.

Cool, thanks for that.

It is indeed the Aria bundle - have you heard anything about them as there isnt any real reviews out there. They seem to be the cheapest around. Whilst i could get the components individually and then OC it myself i am generally lazier these days.

I have bought components from them without any problems. My friend built a pre overclocked PC nearly a year ago and that all ok as well.
