My first thread got a lot of heat for not having the rest of my system specs figured out. I have since corrected that problem. I was going to get following Ripjaws RAM at 1600Mhz, CL 7: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231279 (1600Mhz, CL 7-7-7-24, No Savings)
But then I found these two combos with my chosen motherboard that could save me as much as $45. They are all the same brand and voltage. They also all have higher speed and higher CL. How will the change in speed and CL effect the overall speed? Is it worth the savings to get a combo or should I stick with my original RAM?

Planning to overclock moderately
