Which is the best RAM for the 2.3GHz i7 Mac mini?

[Ngorkes]

I Am buying a 2.3ghz i7 mac mini and I am going to upgrade it to 16gb of ram my self. I am wondering what would be the best upgrade kit for $60 to $100?

Got my Memory from Crucial and it works perfect.

Fast Free Delivery too

This is the kit that I bought. Newegg and Fry's had recent deals dropping this down to about $65-$70. Runs well with no errors when checked.

Another vote here for Crucial.

G.SKILL 16GB (2 x 8G) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Laptop Memory Model F3-1600C10D-16GSQ - $49.99

Neweggs has the G.Skill F3-1600C10D-16GSQ 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3-1600MHz PC3-12800 Laptop Memory for a low $49.99 Free Shipping. Tax in CA, NJ, TN. This is about $14 less than the next lowest merchant and the lowest price we have seen. - From TechBargains

Is it going to work with Mac Mini late 2012?

Has anybody tried Kingston HyperX PnP memory? According to their technical sheet it's superior to Crucial

http://www.kingston.com/datasheets/K...9S3P1K2_8G.pdf

Crucial memory: CL=11 1.35V
Kingston HyperX PnP: CL=9 1.5V

I wonder what's the difference in performance in real life usage.
