http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gskill-memory-f32133c9d16gxh this would pair great with an oveclocked i5/i7 k version or this 8gb http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gskill-memory-f314900cl8d8gbxm will still perform greatly! better focus on the specs and not the brand g.skill- corsair-kingston...all good! also check this out! http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-z87extreme6

For Haswell processor, Trident X with higher speed above 1866Mhz and CL lower than 9 are the most recommended.
For 16gb kit, go with:

What CPU? that will determine what DRAM you can run. To run 2400 or up (and sometimes 2133) will need a K model CPU

Thank you for all the answers~

For the CPU I was aiming for the i7 4770k

 

[Tradesman1]

Good choice, with that the Sky's the limit
