I am thinking of buying this set of ram and would like your thoughts or maybe advice on better ram.

I will be doing a lot of gaming and surfing with a bit of photoshop etc.

I wouldn't get that, the specs are:
* Part - CMX6GX3M3A1600C9
* Each module pair is tested together at
1600MHz
* Tested together at 1600MHz, Vdimm =
1.85v-, at latency settings of 9-9-9-24
* 100% tested at 1333MHz in X58 Motherboards
DDR3 motherboards
* Lifetime warranty

1.85V to run 1600mhz @ 9-9-9-24 is not that good. I would recommend the G skill Tridents 2000 mhz (they don't have them at the site you posted), great bang for the buck memory. They will do 6-7-6-18 @ 1600 mhz & have lots of headroom for overclocking.
There are cheaper alternatives, look for lower voltage though, at least 1.65V @ 1600mhz.
