Thanks guys.

Whoa, quite a jumble. First, get 64 bit. 32 bit won't use more than 3.25GB. Believe me, I am using it now. Second, Dominator Platinums are a waste. Just get something cheaper, like Vengeance Pro sticks. They still look sexy for half the price. Why need an antenna when the mini PCIe WiFi card has one already? Does the MVIG even support mini-PCIe?

@HexaGuy do you need 16gb ram? if its just for gaming get a asus gryphon save money on the mobo get 8gb ram and a 770 or 780

Yep. I updated the link in the OP with 64bit Windows. I'll take the ram into consideration. I don't think the WiFi card includes an antenna, and the MVIG does support mini PCIe.

 

EDIT: Whoops, the WiFi card does include an antenna after all.

 I do some Photoshop work for school, and do design work. I really don't like the look of the Gryphon...I want this to last as long as possible and I don't want to have to keep upgrading memory capacity every 2 years. For sure I'll get a 770 or a 780. 

 

 

Thanks guys for the suggestions.

@HexaGuy, both the links are the same parts. Any reason why?

Peculiar...I used the PCCG URL. Should be different parts. If not, I'll have to type them in.

I agree, the plats are the only overpriced thing (i guess) you could save some money or also invest it in a 2Tb seagate since you're working with Photoshop and you might be wanting to do some video editing in the future with that kind of components.

Thanks guys for all the advice. I wish I could pick multiple best answers
