Hello.
I have recently started buying parts for my PC.
I already have the following:
Motherboard - ASUS M5A97 R2.0

Case - Thermaltake VL800P1W2N (Black/Red) ATX Mid Tower Case

DVD Drive - Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer

Harddrive - Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD 3.5"

Dell Logitech Optical USB Wired Black Silver
Scroll Wheel Computer Mouse 4P608

Microsoft Comfort Curve 1047 Keyboard
(KU0459)

DELL E171FP 1280x1024

Cable Ties (100 pk)

And I already have a copy of Windows 8 Professional. I also already installed the MOBO inside the case, as well as connecting the front panel connectors, and installing the DVD Drive and HDD that I got a couple of days ago.

I am planning on getting the following:
FX 6300 as the CPU (Due to the AMD 970 Chipset - anything higher such as the FX 8320 or 8350 would end up being bottlenecked, if im not mistaken)

MSI R7 260X 2GD5 OC as the GPU

Corsair Enthusiast 650W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply as the Power Supply

But I am stuck on what to get for RAM?
I think 8GB (2x4) should be plenty for now,
and if i ever want 16GB I can just add more down the road. Can someone please point me in the right direction ? Thanks
