Corsair is GENERALLY a much better brand than G. Skill. In that case they're basically the same, but Corsair is a more reputable brand. I also like Mushkin and Kingston for RAM as well.
Also, there's no reason not to get a Black Edition CPU. Even if you don't overclock their stock speeds are always higher and they are binned better. Plus, even with everything else on stock you can just up the CPU multiplier a little bit and get 200mhz or so with no effort at all (if you feel like it).
