The xms3 looks like a 1.65v kit, which might hold you back a little. These samsung sticks seem to be pretty good overclockers and the low profile and voltage will help for overclocking.

that was as close to what i could find, the ones i'm actually going to get are 1.5v Corsair Vengeance 1x4gb module (black). the micro center rebate brings the price down $10 to ~21 dollars.

personally for the extra 6 bucks I would get this 4 GB stick
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0380719

or get 2 of them for 8 gb. 1 GB sticks are pretty small and you would be better to go 2x2gb sticks rather than 1x4 gb sticks.

edit: Whoops, goofed there

1x4gb means one four gb stick for a total of 4gb in one stick. Sorry if that was the confusion?

When you go to MC, get the ASRock Extreme4 z77, and the Samsung 2x4GB DDR3-1600, 11-11-11-30, 1.35v RAM. Don't be fooled by the RAM either, they can do 2133-2400 (and sometimes higher), or they can tighten to 8-8-8 at 1600.
