First time builder here... Looking for some feedback to confirm all of these components I've researched will be compatable.

Also I'm not looking into overclocking quite yet, until I get more experience in the basics of setting up a rig. However any advice on that would help too.

Lastly, do I need an aftermarket fan if I'm not planning on O.C. immediately? Will the stock fan provide enough cooling? Thanks for any support!

Thanks CTurbo, it's help like this that I'm looking for. is just a 2x8gb set fine? Anywhere else you see I could cut costs? Should I just shop around on amazon also?

Not planning on overclocking quite yet, as I'm not experienced in it. However I understand I would need to add an aftermarket cooler. If the stock cooler is garbage, I may just do it anyway.
