depends on your mobo. 2 bucks doesnt make a difference, neither does 20 if stability could be an issue with a certain pair.

Corsair Dom GTs, only because of their color scheme xD but either of them will be fine, performance-wise

I agree. I heard good things about Mushkin and I've had problems with 3 sets of corsair RAM I've had.

Any ram that is not OCZ or Crucial will work well. Get the one you prefer or the cheaper one. Also look if G.skill is in your country. Many of us here like them a lot
