Is there much different in terms of performance from RAM for £115 compared to RAM which is £180?

I am looking at...

OCZ 2GB DDR400 CL2.0 DUAL CHANNEL PLATINUM

£184 timings of 2-3-2-5

or

OCZ 2GB DDR400 CL2.0 DUAL CHANNEL PLATINUM XTC EDITION

£178 (slightly cheaper) with same timings of 2-3-2-5

or finally

Kingston 2GB Kit 400mhz DDR PC3200 CL3.0

£116 (mega cheaper) and with timings of 3-3-3-8

At the minute I have crappy RAM with timings of 3-3-3-8 and to be honest, it aint bad, but because there is only 1gb of it, I am a laggy at the start of maps on BF2 and my PC is really laggy when exiting BF2.

So what I'm asking...

Will I benefit performance wise (due to the timings of 2-3-2-5 compared to 3-3-3-8) in spending another £70-£75 over the Kingston stuff, or will the Kingston do me fine for a fraction of the price of the OCZ stuff?

Cheers for your time, Steve.
