Hello,

The rest of my PC components shipped today, and I am in the process of putting it all together, however I'm a bit concerned regarding the RAM and the PSU.

I bought 2x8GB RipjawsZ F3-1866C9D-16GZH but am figuring the F3-1866C8D-16GTX would be much better suited for my 4th gen i7 4930k. Are they similar, is it worth sending the old one back and upgrading?

Also, I am concerned my 1000W PSU isn't enough wattage (can be seen here: http://www.coolermaster-usa.com/product.php?product_id=10043)

These are the components:
Obsidian 650D Case
Hydro H110 CPU Cooler
Ripjaws Z 2 x 8GB
Cooler Master V1000
Seagate 2TB HDD
Samsung 840 Pro SSD
Logitech Speakers
ASUS Xonar DSX Sound Card
Intel i7-4930K
ASUS X-79 DELUXE Motherboard
EVGA NVIDIA GTX 780 GPU
EVGA NVIDIA GTX 780 GPU
Lite On Blu-Ray 12X
ASUS 24X DVD Burner

I also plan to have 4-8 USB units connected at any given time.

Please help as I'd like to act swiftly on this, thanks for your time!

Thanks for the speedy response and the compliment! I was just checking through some PSU calculators and most all of them was suggesting about 1200W.

What do you mean by Seasonic too? I bought a Cooler Master, I'm confused! lol
 

The Ripjaws Z will be more than enough, you will never notice the difference TBH. Just go for 4x4GB Ripjaws X if you can. Also, a 750D is better suited for a 280mm rad.
