jalyst,
Compared with the PI, the ECO advantage is voltage. The CL7 PI is spec'd for older DDR3 platforms that can operate a 1.90V. If you plan on using the newer H55/H57 platforms, you would not be able to use this since the high memory voltage would destroy your CPU.
The HZ's have the same 1.90V voltage, so the same problems arises. Another problem being both the HZ and PI CL7 are discontinued.
The Trident 1600 CL6 is a great memory package. It does fall within your voltage requirements (1.60V). It has a lower CAS latency, but they are rare to come by, which is why they are also now out of stock.
The RH is one of the memory packages that supersedes the first two above. It does not require as much voltage, since it has the newer IC chip with improved manufacturing processes. So essentially it would perform the same as the ones above, except with lower voltages. All of the memory packages with similar specs will perform similarly. That's the reason why it's no big deal which one you choose. All G.Skill memory modules are overclockable and downclockable. They will all scale just as well, just with different voltages. And since the ECO is 1.35V, it has slightly more range and flexibility, which is what I thought you were looking for. Plus, if you purchase the H57/i3, the whole idea is to use as least amount of voltage as you can, so it is only proper to purchase the ECO series for your other ECO hardware.
The ECO series can do everything the other memory packages can do with a lower voltage. That simply tells you it's the best, so there is no question about which one you should get. That's why my response is simple.
Thank you
