Worth the extra money for faster money for non-overclocking?

Hello,

I have:
Intel D865PERLK
Intel 3.0 GHz 800MHz FSB

I just bought some memory, but I am thinking maybe I should return it and
save some money. Basically, my choices are (from the cheapest place where I
live):
2 x 512 Megs of Kingston Value RAM CAS 3 at $135 per stick = $270 for 1 Gig
2 x 512 Megs of Corsair CAS 2 at $169 per stick = $338 for 1 Gig

I don't plan to overclock...well I can't given my motherboard. So does
anyone have any benchmarks or know of any that show whether the change from
CAS 3 to CAS 2 is worth the extra $70?

Thanks.

Sorry, what was your question about Asus? I saw you also posted this in
overclocking, which is almost as bad as posting here (since Intel mobo's
are locked).
