I'm about to build a new gaming only system incorporating an i7-860 and an ASUS P7P55D PRO LGA 1156. This combo to be exact:

My question has to deal with which RAM to choose, my first choice was this set from G.Skill.

Seeing as I will be using this system for gaming only, should i be concerned about the slower timings? Would I even be better off with an entirely different brand? Ive been torn on whether or not to upgrade to the slightly more expensive version listed below.

Any help is greatly appreciated, Im terrible at making decisions.
