RAM (size) compatible with build?

Here's the babe http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3h88w

And here's what I want to know about http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-memory-cmd16gx3m2a1866c10

Ok so I know the Platinum is slightly faster and all. But I really want to know if it is to big to fit with my noctua cooler. Also is the added price worth it? (Yes I'm shallow it like the way it looks okay?)

Stay with the Crucial. It's going to be fast anyways, and it's low-profile, so it won't interfere with your monstrous cooler.

TechCIDLC :

Alright. Do you know any other ways to make my rig pop? Any sort of leds I could add, or certain fans? (without adding tons to the price)

My rig doesn't have to look amazing but it would make it fun to show off.

Well, for fans, check these out.

Do you really need 16gb more of ram?

I would just go for led lighting to make it look nice.

NZXT Hue is pretty good.

RazerZ :

You're right, look how pretty.

RazerZ :

Im going to be doing tons of video editing/rendering.... So yeah.
EDIT: I was either going to get the Crucial or the Corsair. Not both.

TechCIDLC :

Can I replace the back 120mm fan with a 140mm? Or will that not work.

RazerZ · Apr 3, 2014

EDIT: Dominator will not fit

looked at the case specs and besides the 200mm top fan, the rest of them are 120mm.

this ram is only $135 and is similar to the one you posted, and has a lower CAS.

Here's the compatibility list:

RazerZ :

I noticed the ram you picked was blue... and it's g.skill. I haven't actually heard much about Crucial but was going with it because of a voltage problem with most other g.skill RAM. But the one you have chosen is compatible.

I will probably go with this but do you personally recommend it over crucial.

For ram, most manufacturers quality are around the same. I just look at the best specs for the best price at the time. G.Skill is a great brand however.

Alright thank. One last thing if you have the time. What do you think of my build overall? (besides the peripherals)

That build is solid. All of the parts are top notch.
