Ivy tends to like higher frequency more than tighter timings at lower frequency, although I haven't tested 1600 --> 1866.

I assume since those ram kits are so close, they would both run at 1600 8-8-8-24, and 1866 9-10-9-27. I would just go with the cheaper one and try both configs and see which you like best. :)
