Question about purchasing RAM matched with the 1090T

[Bokthand]

Hi, I've built several computer in the past, but one of the parts I've never really spent much time researching is RAM. I know the basics, but when it comes to the clock speed, timings, and associations with various CPUs I'm kind of at a loss.

I'm planning on buying a new set of RAM, but not sure which would be the best to purchase.

I have a 1090T with a Gigabyte 990 board.

I was at first just going to get the GSkill 1600 Ripjaws, but then as I read more I thought I would attempt some overclocking and pick up the 1866 Ripjaw. The 2133 Sniper's are currently on sale for $50 at Newegg and they are also temping me.
If I can get the 1600 for roughly the same price as the 2133 set is there anything that makes the 1600 a better purchase than the others? As far as I can tell from reading a bit, I won't get the 2133 sticks up to that speed with my CPU, but I can manually OC them 1700ish while still remaining very stable.

So, I guess my ultimate question is, would getting these

be worth getting over the equivalent 1600 or 1866s?
Any advice available would be greatly appreciated.

To start the Snipers roughly equate, performance wise to a set of 1866/CL10 or 1600/CL9, at 2133 it will obviously have more bandwidth, (for a rough idea of differences in DRAM performance at stepped freq/CL might see:

With the 1090T you might be able to get the sticks to 2133, w/ a decent OC as they are CL11 and would guess 1866 shouldn't be a real problem

Definitely worth it, especially when it's basically the same price.

Higher frequency memory will allow better timings when used at a lower frequency. So instead of CL9 when you purchase DDR3-1600/1866 memory, you can attempt CL8 and even CL7 if you use the DDR3-2133 model. So whether just a little bit or a lot of overclocking, you can expect great results.
