I want 32gb RAM, 4x8gb sticks

What should I look at? Any newegg recommendations for price/performance/timings?

I plan to overclock the new Ivy Bridge 3770k to around a comfortable 4gb, and need the RAM for After Effects/editing. I dont' want to blow money on useless features on RAM but want to get good stuff. Was looking at:

Thoughts?
 
$5 is only 4% off. I am pretty sure newegg does blanket 10-15% off memory promos at least once a month.
 
overclocking of the cpu does not touch the ram. just get what ever ram you want, but remembering ivy bridge can make use of 1600Mhz ram vs the 1333MHz that sandy bridge used.

Only other thing is look for 1.5V ram as it is the perfered voltage for Ivy bridge.

timings make a little difference but not in the real life usage generally. espically not for the cost difference that can be asked for.
 
What happens if you want 8GB sticks and not 4GB sticks? Does Samsung offer this and if not, what would you go with?
