Hey guys I need some help.

I'm building a new PC after about 4 years. I've never been into over clocking but am interested in learning for fun.
I need help selecting RAM. Please see the system specs below.



Considerations:

1) Trying to do Black and Yellow colors. All black, gray or dark silvers would work fine too.

2) I'm not trying to max out on the over clocking or set records...more for fun and learning.

3) CPU cooler is Hyper 212 EVO so I'm worried about RAM with high profile heat spreaders not working.

* I'm might go to water cooling later when I'm more comfortable with it.

4) I prefer reliable companies/components.



i5 4670k

MSI Mpower Max LGA 1150

Cooler Master Storm Trooper case

Cooler Master V1000 PSU

Cooler master Hyper 212 EVO


Still need to purchase:

16 gb RAM 1600 to 2400 ?

MSI 770 Lightning (to purchase in the next few months when I save the money)




So help me out on my choice of RAM:

*Remember Hyper 212 Evo

1) Kington Hyper X Beast 16 gb (2x8) 2133 or 2400

***I really want these but will they fit with the Hyper 212 Evo?

2) Patriot Viper 3 Extreme Performance Black Mamba 2133mhz 16GB 2x8GB

3) Kingston HyperX Limited Editions - 16GB Kit (4x4GB) - DDR3 2133MHz

4) Crucial Ballistix Tactical 1866mhz 2x8gb

5) G Skill Sniper 2400mhz 2x8 gb

6) CORSAIR Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) 2133

7) Avexir - MSI Z77 MPOWER Optimized (Yellow LED) 16GB Kit (2 x 8GB) CL10 **** Obviously optimized for MSI MPower z77 but z87 too?

8) An option I've missed?

The EVO is no problem with it's fan, it's height is adjustable and no performance hit...Would suggest the Snipers, 2400, still has OC headroom, good reliable sticks, might also look at GSkill Tridents, have 32 GB (2400) of them on my Z77 and currently 16GB of them (2666) on my haswell, will put the other 16 in later, just put it together yesterday and sorting things out
