Trident vs Ares choice

[marmotte]

This is my prospective build for a gaming machine:
i5-4670k, zotac gtx760 amp, Asus hero board,seasonic 620w m12 PSU.
It was suggested that I go for G skill Trident 2x4gb ddr3 pc3-19200 2400mhz.
The trident is only available from one supplier at about £80.
I can get G skill Ares 2x4gb ddr3 pc3-19200 2400 MHz more easily and for less money.
Is there an appreciable difference between the Trident and the Ares with the same spec?

Overclocking rams = trident
Leaving them in stock = ares

Honestly it is zero to very very little difference in real life.

This isn't true anymore, with haswell 2400 ram at cl 9 actually makes "real world" difference as in you can see FPS increases and time to open program decreases.

They are both 2400 man, he was talking about the difference between a trident and an ares.

yes the ares are cl11 the tridents are cl10, and they make a CL9 kit... that difference will be more noticeable than the 2400 vs 1600 argument.

I'd go for a CL9 kit, it's worth it with Haswell. Also, more and more people are suggesting getting 16 gigs of RAM for gaming rigs (Trident X has a nice 2133/9 2x8)
