Memory Recommendation please

Hello,

Can anyone offer advice on what would the best memory to go with the parts below please?

Intel Core i7 950 3.06GHz (Bloomfield) (Socket LGA1366) - Retail

Asus P6X58D-E Intel X58 (Socket 1366) DDR3 Motherboard

Also would a Corsair HX620 watt PSU be sufficient to power it all along with an ATI 5870?

Cooler for the Memory or CPU?

Out of interest how much difference performance wise is there over memory costing £125 and memory costing £200?

I see, well I wont be extreme overclocking so dont need the 2000mhz.

Would a 400 watt PSU be sufficient to run a Core2, Asus Mobo, 3GB Ram?

If the Corsair 620watt is ok for the proposed I7 setup I'd either need to buy a cheap PSU or use the 400watt I've got spare.
