build critique before I finally buy everything
RAM brand doesn't matter. RAM has such an insignificant impact on performance. Go with whatever is the least expensive kit of 8GB RAM that you can find. If you do a lot of rendering, some higher frequency stuff is good. You want a blend of high frequency, low CL. Divide CL by frequency to get a number to compare different kits by. The lower the number, the better/faster the RAM.
Go with EVGA not because it is cheaper, but that is nice to know, but because they provide the absolute best customer service. When they sell you a product, they stand behind that product 100%. I will forever buy EVGA because of how they have treated me, and if you ask most people on this forum, they will agree, EVGA is the best.
Go for whichever case you want, I just wanted to enter a different one that you might not have been aware of.
Yea, go with a 750W PSU instead of an 850W. If possible, go for the EVGA G2 SuperNOVA 750W. If not, that is ok, but the warranty, features, and price on the EVGA G2 is usually the absolute best in that price range, at least in the US and Europe.
Lastly, don't buy the Cooler Master Nepton 140XL. If the Nepton 240M is not available, then go with the Noctua. Unless if you want liquid cooling, then look into other options, but you want a 240mm radiator as a minimum for a CPU AIO. Corsair H105 maybe if it is available? Not the H100i!
