Is there noticeable difference from this 2 set of ram?

G.Skill RipjawsX 1600mhz CL7-8-8-24 ($65 CAD)

vs

Kingston HyperX 1600mhz CL10-10-10-30 ($50 CAD)

 

which one would you go after?

Thanks

G Skill is way better. The timings are much tighter.  That Kingston ram is using timings you would expect to see on 1866 ram not 1600. So in this case I'd go with the G Skill for the extra $15.

but is that timing a noticeable difference? or it will only show the difference in synthetic benchmark?

for extra $15 each, it will be extra $30 since i will be getting 4x4gb (2 sets)

Personally I'd be going for diff ram altogether. There are better deals out there... much better deals. You're Canadian though so I dunno is that Canadian dollars? 

 

And no, not gonna be much of a diff you'll notice between the two.... that's still really loose timings for 1600 on that Kingston.

@dreamhacking Any off this list.  If you are just trying to get 16GB cheap then heres newegg Canada... I narrowed down the selection for you. 

Those two you linked above would be fine too. Go with what you like the best and think is the best deal and matches your color scheme.
