ddr3-1866: Kingston HyperX Fury or Beast?

i am upgrading my rig with some new ram, as i found a buyer for my current kit (who for some reason wants to give me 60 bucks for my used Vengeance modules). You can see my pc in my signature, basically i dont know if i should get these or these. The fury ones are kinda sorta older (like 4 months if im not mistaken) but also almost $5 cheaper than the Beast kit ($61.32 vs $65.98, i should probably state that i live in austria so please dont tell me i can get them for some other price at newegg or amazon.)

 

All i want to know is which ones i should get, Fury modules have a CL10-11-10 latency whereas the beast have CL9-10-11 (when using XMP, i can use D.O.C.P. right? doeas that interfere with my cpu overclock in any way?). I know that latency doeas not matter that much and some will tell me to save the 5 bucks bud id still like to know which are better...

If I were you, I'd just go for the Fury on the basis that they're prettier, but I suppose that just shows how little I know about performance-oriented RAM modules...
