There are three options - 

 

Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) PC DRAM (CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10)

  • DDR3 1600/PC3 12800
  • 10-10-10-27 CAS Latency
  • 240-pin Configuration
  • DIMM Memory Module

 

Kingston HyperX DDR3 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) PC SDRAM (KHX1600C10D3B1/8G)

  • 6-7-8-9 CAS Latency
  • DIMM Memory Module
  • 240-pin Configuration
  • DDR3-1600

 

Or 2 sticks of 4 GB ram

Corsair Vengeance DDR3 4 GB (1 x 4 GB) PC DRAM (CMZ4GX3M1A1600C9)

  • DDR3-1600/PC3-12800
  • DIMM Memory Module
  • 240-pin Configuration
  • 9-9-9 CAS Latency

That seems very, very wrong. The KHX1600C10D3B1 kit is CL10. 

 

Dual channel is technically be better but the difference is generally unnoticeable outside of more specific memory-intensive scenarios. I would go with the HyperX Blu due to it not having stupid tall heatsinks.
