What percentage performance difference should one expect from going from 512 ram @ cl3-7-4-4 to the same amount of ram @ cl 2-6-3-3?
That is what I'm really curious about.

Value ram does not mean cheap generic memory.
Kingston, Corsair, Crucial, Mushkin all have their value lines. The higher end memory with low latency is not worth it in a normal machine as the difference is minimal, a percent or so in overal system performance. The higher end memory may allow you to run higher memory speeds, which will aid your overclock.
