6300 black edition
990fx rev.2
250gb Evo ssd
1t 10k rpm storage drive
2x 7750 readeon

Is how the build sits currently - now i want to play mostly wow at ultra Settings so my question is liquid or air cool and 1866vs2400ghz ram and how big of a kit to get 8 or 16. Tired of 25 man raids slowing my fps so i am building this new rig any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

I missed the SSD in your list .

Water coolers in the $60 range are generally not any better than an air cooler costing $20-30 less. Often they are noisier too .
Depends on your case , and whether you wish to OC the processor too.
I run an FX 6300 at 4.2 Ghz using a scythe Ninja cooler . Chosen for being big and quiet with the fans on minimum speed . I can run it at 4.8 GHz if I turn cpu and case fans up
but for value its hard to get past the CM Hyper 212 . It cools well , is around the $30 mark

You will easily get OC's above 4 Ghz using the AMD overdrive software

8 gig of RAM should be more than you need

If you do not have those parts already I suggest you make some changes

FX6300
mb with a 970 series chipset
2 x4 gig of 1600 or 1866 Mhz RAM
a 120 gig SSD . MUCH faster than a 10k hard drive
one powerful graphics card . Crossfire of two bottom end card on an expensive mb is just not good value . What card you use depends on the resolution of your monitor and your budget
