Since i cant get G-skill in my country I have to choose between Corsair and OCZ.

I don't really want Coarsair, so therefore i have choosen OCZ.

The memory modules i gotta choose between are:

OCZ 6gb Plantium 1866 mhz 9-9-9-28
OCZ 6gb Plantium 1600 mhz 7-7-7-24
OCZ 6gb Gold 1600 mhz 8-8-8-20

I got i7 920 which i can/will overclock to 3,6ghz on a Thermalright 120 TRUE, that is possible right using UD5 X58 Gigabyte ??

Well, which memory should I go for? I got plenty of cash, so that is no problem.
I have read that players should have gained more fps in highend shooter games by using 1866 mhz memory modules? Is that right or wrong?

But in the end, which memory should I go for? I need order today, so please make some awesome comments, which explain why you do like you do :)
 
IF you have plenty of cash send some to me, LOL!!!!

seriously, just stick with the plats or the reapers from OCZ.

I think those 1600's will do the other spec no problem.
 
Thnx dude.

I cant get Reapers in Denmark :(
So i have to stick with Plantium OCZ, but they are also good?

But in generel, which Plantium run fastest? The 1600 with lower latency or the 1866 with a bit higher latency ?

I dont know much about latency, but so far its a question for me what i should go for?
Mhz vs. Latency ? Who is the winner?

But to end this. If I got the money that it takes to buy 1866 mhz with cost more than 1600 mhz, which one should i go for then? Can I feel any difference in gaming and so on? And will 1866 benefit to my system which is:

i7 920, UD5 Gigabyte, raptor 150gb, 4870x2, haf932, thermalright true 120, etc.

Hope to reciew some answer, and please say why u choose what u choose ;) That will make me smarter, and make me gain more knowlegde :)
