the cooler you chose is worse than the one that comes with the cpu. get a hyper 212 EVO at least. the RAM would be better if it were 2 sticks of 4GB rather than 1 8GB stick. why do you need so many fans? the case already comes with 3

I dont know why i chose that fan, it just followed my theme and the 1 8gb ram stick is because i wanted to upgrade to 16 then 24 then 32, and i want those fans because i want to follow a theme. but thanks for that about the cpu fan, i would have never new!:)
