I'd go with a more reliable brand of RAM personally. Corsair, G.Skill or something along those lines.

I don't like the CX series from Corsair all that much.

would the Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 Vengeance 8GB be a good substitute

It's better to have a 7950 and an FX 6300 for gaming.

ShaBaz Khan · Aug 13, 2013

ihog :

but OC 7870 and FX 8350 will be nice..overall.. and last for a while... bcz upcoming games will run over 8 threads...

ihog · Aug 13, 2013

Why does everyone think that? The PS4 and XB1 have 2 cores reserved for the OS, so only 6 cores will be used for games. I highly doubt we will see games commonly and efficiently using 8 threads anytime soon.

besides I don't plan on OC'ing my pc since this is my first and it's mainly to test the hype around PC gaming
