OK, so I was recently surprised with a free one-way ticket to Conroe street. I got a Conroe e6400, Gigabyte GA-965p-DQ6, and Seasonic S12 500. All great except...the RAM I got turned out to be defective, so I took it back for a refund. I'm looking for a replacement kit and I'm trying to decide between these two:

Which one would you pick? The Patriot RAM has a lot of people on the Newegg reviews talking about crazy overclocks and since it takes 1.8v at stock I could boot up with it just fine and raise it to 800. The OCZ is cheaper, but I would have to get a stick of el cheapo RAM to allow me to boot and up the voltage.
