Sweet, i am going to order the rest of my bits today so tomorrow i can build it all very exciting
But saying that i have just checked my motherboard and it say max 2666MHZ does that only apply when having 4 sticks of ram?

According to MSI website it can run 3200MHz.

This might change with a future bios update but you can go with a 3200MHz kit of the same Ram if you want. It is £20 cheaper as well.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Team Group Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C14 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black/= £179.99

Total: £188.69
(includes shipping: £8.70)

Just placed my order with the changes you guys recommended. Big thanks for the help @lee32uk @RDCorporation !!!

There is an ASUS promotion which means you should be able to get two free brand new games via a rebate. Hopefully your mobo is one of the ones in the offer.
