G.Skill Ripjaws or Corsair Vengeance?

So since I've started playing BF3 I noticed my RAM is very close to maxing out so its time to upgrade.

I'm stuck between these two sets of 2x4GB

G.Skill Ripjaws

DDR3-1600 Timings 7-8-7-24 1.6V

Corsair Vengeance

DDR3-1600 Timings 7-8-7-20 1.5V

I'm leaning twards the Corsair for the lower voltage, but the G.SKill does match my Motherboard . This is running in an i5-750 machine OC'd to 3.2Ghz and it currently has 2x2GB G.skill Ripjaws 1600mhz cas7, so I don't expect a performance boost.

G.skill 2133 @ 1.5V would solve everything.

You can always underclock it and boost latency, although I suspect it won't make any difference at all.

Underclock?! Blasphemy!

But that is a great suggestion Proximon, and I could use them for when I make the jump to Sandy Bridge. I'll keep that in mind.

Either will work fine and changing frequency or latency on DDR3 won't change anything tangible as far as performance.
