Is it worth an extra $10?

[dragoon24x]

I'm building a high end, budget gaming computer I was just wondering if a cas latency difference of 2 was going to be worth $10. Here are the two options:

G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB

Thanks in advance!

I'd probably go with the one with lower timings. Just wouldn't want to regret not getting it later 😛

Its either a high end system, or budget...cant really have both since they are opposite

If you are building a Sandy Bridge system neither is a good choice. Going over 1.5v voids the CPU warranty. Also due to the chips having an integrated memory controller going over 1.5v DDR3 1600 cas 9 yields no real gains.

If building an AMD system go with the low cas stuff.

It's all about getting good gear you want regret buying, without breaking the bank.

Wat is meant by lower timings...did u mean the delay ?
