Corsair Vengeance overclocking query

[lovedonator]

So I have 2x4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 running at 1333MHz on an Asus Maximus V Gene with i5-3570K. So here are my questions-

1- Is there a real life performance difference if I run it at 1600MHz? The usage scenario is Gaming.

2- If indeed it is worth running at 1600MHz which is the preferred method. Set the xmp profile on my Asus Motherboard or to manually set it to 1600MHz and 1.5V?

Why are you unnecessarily down-clocking the RAM modules? I don't understand it.

It's running on 1333MHz by default after assembling my PC.

Ok. Use XMP to run them @1600MHz. Very simple process.

Enabled xmp. RAM running at 1600MHz. @lovedonator is happy. Now if only flipkart would deliver my Graphic card,got some dragons to kill..
