Good. Don't buy that SSD. IT is bad

Corsair or GSkill RAM are fine. Though any should do. 2x8

Ditto. I'd trust my old SSD from 2011 before that particular Kingston drive. 

 

For good performance for the dollar ram, G.Skill Ripjaws and Corsair Vengeance series ram is good. In spite of the SSD, Kingston Fury ram is pretty good.

OK i just don't know  platinum of trident. 

Don't waste the cash on blingy meme ram, not worth it. Better with the Vengeance series if Corsair and use the saved cash for a better SSD

 

Edit: or get the Trident, those look bomb

Dominator Platinums are a bad buy when the TridentZs are more or less the same at a significantly lower price. 3000MHz would be the ideal 'sweetspot' frequency.

 

And yeah, don't get that SSD. Something like the Crucial MX300 would be a good choice.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.
