I'm upgrading my gaming system, I bought the Asus Gen3 Pro Board (socket 1155). I was going over the approved RAM list on the motherboard's website and saw few choices; I was leaning toward GSKILL and Corsair. I also checked Corsair's list and GSKILL. I also saw a earlier post that if it was between those 2 companies; go with Corsair.
Corsair choice:

Would this clear the Cooler Master Hyper 212+?
GSKILL choice:

Cosair has 16GB kit 4x4GB and it's on the approved list on Corsair's site. I couldn't find the Asus Pro Gen3 board on GSKILL (says not found). I read in a earlier post that it's best to get a whole kit and not 2 kits. Is there a general rule concerning Latency and CAS? The higher the better? Lower is better? The Corsair kit CAS is 9.
