Duel / Quad Channel Support

Same. I had the Corsair Dominator RAM with the Titan Fenrir heatsink too, and it blocked the closest port.

Just a question, why do you need 32gb of RAM? 8gb itself is plenty for gaming and 16gb is good for video editing as well.

Another thing to note, which OS are you using? Windows 7 Home Premium has a 16gb RAM limit, but Professional and Ultimate has a 192gb limit. Windows 8 on the other hand have much higher limits and will avoid this problem.

I use 3D programs, so ram helps a lot for rendering, plus ive never been a fan of not using what ive got ...MB can take it..why not fill it.

And OS system isnt a problem...ill install what ever i need

I think ill run with either :

NZXT KRAKEN X60 AIO Water Cooling Unit - 280mm (Socket 775 / 1155 / 1156 / 1366 / 2011 / AMD AM2 / AM3 / AM3+ / FM1) [RL-KRX60-01]

or


Corsair Hydro H100i High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler (Socket 1155 / 1156 / 1366 / 2011 / AM2 / AM3 / FM1 / FM2) [CW-9060009-WW]

So hopefully ill avoid the ram height issue...

With those water coolers then any RAM will be fine. I guess you're after the dominators because they match the motherboard?

Im after any "decent" ram really, im not hugely spec'ed up on the Ram suppliers, so kinda went with what ive known to be fairly respectable manufacturer.

And..potentially, factoring looks as well...

I have decided to step down a clock speed too 1600Mhz,

Corsair Dominator PLATINUM 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit with DHX Pro Connector (CMD16GX3M2A1600C9) [CMD16GX3M2A1600C9]

But i do understand ur choice price wise, just I haven't had much experience / read up on Geil Evo, and i personally think they look ugly...(i have the money to be picky about that so its a factor for me sorry

You must really want the flashy lights

just seems like a lot of money to spend on only 16GB of ram, especially when 32GB which you said you wanted, is only a little more.
plenty of colour choices too

Out of these I'd be tempted to go for the Patriot Viper "Black Mamba", nicely priced, and black as well to match your board .
