Maybe should have stated this before. Everything except my case is just a build list. i dont own it at the moment.

Im not a professional but i think you should go with more DDR3 Ram than DDR4. You'll get more performance and a bit of future proofing as well. The clock speeds of DDR4 don't have a large effect on gaming and 16GBs of DDR3 should be better than your choice. I think you also have to change your mobo for this so it might be a bit of hassle finding one compatible but the extra overall performance should be worth it and i think you'll save more money in the long run with 16GB of DDR3.

I think this mobo supports everything but don't take my word for it.

Can a pro evaluate my answer?

Just to check, what country are you shopping in? Everything looks good, but I don't see a storage drive in the list. You will need one of course.

Also, the RAM you picked out, you might opt for a faster one. Nothing wrong with the one you picked, just that faster ones are also rather inexpensive in the U.S., so probably won't really change the cost.

As for your PSU, it is more power than you need. You will get more efficient results by going with a lower power unit, but you want to make sure you stick to another high quality PSU like this one. Not a big deal though, just something to consider to reduce price somewhat.

The hardware you selected is compatible with each other, but it is best he sticks with DDR4. DDR3 is technically obsolete now, as it is being replaced by DDR4. DDR4 offers just slight performance gains right now, but it also has lower power consumption, heat production and thanks to new smaller transistors it will soon be less expensive/GB too.

Hope this doesn't discourage you. We are always happy to have new tech enthusiasts join our community.
