I have an Asus P8Z77-V Pro motherboard and the memory supported is 1600MHz and anything higher will have to be overclocked. This is the pair i was looking at

Cas Latency: 8
Voltage: 1.5V
Timing: 8-8-8-24
now i know for the most part over 1600 you wont notice a difference but this set of RAM is the exact same price

Cas Latency: 9
Voltage: 1.5V
Timing: 9-10-9-28
so my question is even though the difference is barely noticable should i get the 1866MHz for the same price and when it defaults to 1600 just change it to 1866? and does this mean i would have to up the voltage?
i am also a little confused when it comes to CAS latency and timings..from everything ive read the lower the better...
so i dont really know which would be better in the situation for the same price..
the 1600 MHz CL 8 8-8-8-24
or the
1866 MHz CL 9 9-10-9-28
if someone could please help out id really appreciate it..i know theres a couple different questions in my post so if you know about them feel free to explain everything..thanks
