I have 400 euros to spend, Currently I have an Intel G4400, GIGABYTE GTX950 OC, 4GB DDR3 RAM 3300MHz-single stick, H110M-K D3 Motherboard and a LEPA MX-F1 450W.

 

I got recommended some Kingston Hyperx 16GB pair of RAM sticks, Corsair cx450 PSU and an Intel i5 6500, I just want to make sure that everything is comparable and I won't have any problems.

 

I want to play Overwatch and maybe BF1 with it, I wouldn't mind 1080p gameplay on the lowest settings.

buy a second stick of 4Gb so you have 8 and upgrade the CPU, that's about all I would do if your not upgrading the GPU

I make Rainmeter things and other art :D

It's fine. I'd get an i3 6100 for around 100 euros, a GTX 970 or 980 for around 200 euros. (all used) and if you have leftover you can get another 4GB RAM

kabylake can use ddr3, Intel's website page lists the same DDR3L compatibility on kabylake.

idk who would recommend a gamer more than 8GB of ram. As sad before, your mainboard supports DDR3, so you should get something similar to what you already have as memory. Your GPU seems fine for gaming, and an i5 too. But I would go for an overclockable variant if you consider upgrading your mainboard in near future. (DDR4 ram, overclocking)

i would suggest you look for a used i3 6100 or update your motherboard bios and get a G4560, get an extra 4gb of ram or replace your current stick for an 8gb stick, upgrade the PSU, maybe sell your old parts if needed and see if you can use the money left to get a gtx 970/980.

What does the CL thing on RAM mean, do sticks have to have the same CL number to work properly?

Lower CL = better but no they don't really have to be the same

your motherboard cannot overclock so it doesn't matter if you get an overclockable CPU or not.
