2011 and 2011-3 aren't compatible as I recall. (because Intel said so)

Do not  as I  do, and  not  as I say. Instead do as you may..

5820k

MSI X99 SLI Plus

Crucial Ballistix sport 16 GB

GTX 970 of your choice

Bam under 1000€

Well maybe a little over but good options for upgrades later

Really I can't like tell you one specific one depends on the prices, but good brands are Crucial (Ripjaws series is good), Kingston, G.Skill (Ballistix) and Corsair (vengeance don't go the the expensive dominator platinum).

In the Netherlands 2 x 4 Gb of Ripjaws X series CL9 1866 Mhz is around 73 euro's.
