The ripjaws in more way than one.

There's better priced ram available though...

I had 16GB of Corsair Vengeance that I sold to a  friend, then I upgraded to 16GB of RipJaws X for the looks (have 32GB now). There really wasn't any real-world difference from my experience. Get the G.Skill because it's cheaper.

Whats better?

It all depends. If you are using an APU (AMD a series CPU) go with the Gskill.  If you are using a Graphics card it is really based on looks.  The Gskill memory will perform faster but if you are using a dedicated graphics card the RAM does not matter.  Although have some pride man! choose what looks best in your rig.  So you can look at it with pride! However the Gskill will perform better.  Good luck! :D

Not sure what you mean, but its a ROG Hero mobo w/4770k

I was just wondering in terms of color scheme. I'd wait for some cheaper ram as Black Friday/Cyber Monday is near.
