Which memory do I get:
1) G.Skill Ripjaws X F3-17000CL9D-8GBXLD ($189 AUD), operating at 1.65volts and has timings 9-11-9-28.
2) G.Skill Ripjaws X F3-17000CL11D-8GBXL ($125 AUD), operating at 1.5volts and has timings 11-11-11-30-2N.
Both are dual channel kits that are 8GB (2x4GB) and both run at 2133MHz. Number (1) also comes this an included cooling fan for the memory, but I dont care about that coz I'll just end up throwing that out and not using it.
Clearly, number (2) is aimed at the new Sandy Bridge 1155 CPU's since its running at 1.5v, and I'll be using either an ASUS Maximus IV Extreme or a Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD7.
What I would like to know is, which ram is better, since I'm not very familiar with what the timings mean.
