I know bottlenecks in ram aren't that important but the 770 should have around 12gb so I'm going to get 16gb (4x4), thanks for helping me but I really need to sleep as I barely get enough and its almost 3 so I'm gonna have 4 hours of sleep, yay

I know aesthetics shouldn't really matter to me but I want some eye candy so I'm going for some more expensive parts (I know its dumb but I'm a tiny bit OCD too)

I wouldn't touch that psu personally and I understand you might not want a new case so just make sure your 770 will fit, it'd be a shame if your case was too small

Thanks, the case is full ATX and where GPUs go there's nothing on the other side so it will defiantly fit
