Pro or other lower profile ram. 
I don't like the look of vengeance ram >.>

It makes me think of the stereotypical gamer's preferences.

 

I'm more of a sleek look guy.

Pro because of the arches over the heatsink fins. You can also get them in various colours. I know you can with the regular vengance but I always struggled to find the right size in the right colour in the UK

It depends on the build. Too many to choose from.

youre already paying close to $80 for what should be a $45 kit.. Classy R4? Just a suggestion.. Jeez. :]

All the white doesn't go too well in my build that is gray and black, Platinum ram is just a bit much for my build i feel, but thanks for the suggestion :B

I like the look of the Vengeance Pro more, the normal Vengeance could be used in almost any build but the Vengeance Pro's look nicer in a themed build in my opinion.

I really don't like Corsair, so I don't know. I like the look of G. Skill sniper and trident memory.
