£6 extra for the extra warranty on the cpu is well worth it

Hey guys,
Just got round to collecting my new motherboard and cpu 3570k, and the gigabyte z77,

Can anyone help me out with some fast ram for it, either 8gb sticks or 4gb sticks minimum.
Also wanted a good CPU cooler, was looking at the corsair liquid cooled one,
Not sure of the model but worked out about £50 is it worth while buying it or not worth it and just buy a cooler for around £30.

Thanks

Cant recommend that cooler enough. I use it on my 3570k which is overclocked to 4.2Ghz and most of the time it idles at just shy of 30C. Even at full load I rarely see it go over 60. It's whisper quiet as well and the vast majority of the time is inaudible over my front intake fans.

Might be a stupid question but will fitting a cooler of that size overhang where the ram is on my board,
also is the corsair sealed unit a bad choice?
Just seen some horror story's on YouTube what's making me think twice about getting one lol

The RAM suggested is low-profile, the overhanging fan on the cooler will clear the top of them.
