i would definitly go with more than 16GB, so many things use 18-22GB, or 31GB with planetary anihilation

Ryzen scares me. Will 2400 mhz rams hit hard on the performance

If Ryzen scares you, why don't go Intel?

The parts suggest that you're having some deep pockets :)

If you are building in 6 months, plan the build in 6 months... So many new parts will come out (e.g. Ryzen+)  and prices will definitely change.

9200Turkish Liras 

I found a job 2 weeks ago and i started dreaming already and my dad helps me aswell.

Tbh im planning on upgrading my cpu when Zen2 released not Zen+ . Higher speed ram works well with ryzen so i cant decide 32 Gb but slower(2400mhz ram) or 16GB Faster (3000) mhz ram. And Corsair ones looks awesome.

definitely the faster one, I regret not paying the extra 50e for faster ram back in 2016 when it was still cheap (got 64gb at 2400mhz, 32gb was 200e, at 3000mhz 250e, so I cheaped out...)

 

even if you end up with intel, faster ram doesn't hurt, and it isn't more expensive either.

Prices and availability changes, and new parts come out. Don't plan the parts until 1-2 weeks before you'll purchase the parts.

From what I have seen, some ram such as corsairs lpx vengeance, wether you take 2400mhz or 3200mhz, costs nearly the same. I'll use prices from fr.alternate.be, the 2*8gb modules: 

 

2400mhz is 193€

3200mhz is 213€

 

difference is 20e. Difference used to be greater so cheaper ram was the way to go. Now with the current crazy prices, it makes no real sense to try and save 20e even if you are broke and can barely afford ram. Especially since both new Intel cpus and Ryzen benefit from fast ram. Don't be stupid like me, buy fast ram and don't regret it.

 

'Cause now I have 64gb of ram at 2400mhz I paid 500€, and I can't replace it with faster one without breaking my bank account :D (it's what, 800€ now?)

32Gb 2400 ram is 882TL - the site sells this kit have a bad rep. of sending the wrong set of rams like you buy 16gb 2x8 kit from hyperx they send you corsair 1x8Gb and 1x8gb kit with faster or same speed while writing this i just realized why the fu*k i was considering buying from that site lol.

16GB 3000 MHZ 880TL

32GB 3000 MHZ 1760 TL

Wait till you have to really pay your way, you'd be looking at 12 months+ of saving depending on how much your costs are possibly never.

 

I do strongly suggest you get more than just 16GB, RAM speeds great but if you bottleneck every time you do something requiring all your ram it's useless.

Why? RAM prices are over the roof right now. While they may not go down later, buying at all-time-high is one of the unwisest things to do (even in finance).

Purchasing the parts own by one instead of all together is even more stupid. While you waot for the next part to arrive, the previous one might have been defective. And because it's been so long since you bought it, you can't return it. And prices will change, so unless you buy it for a 80% deal, you'll most likely find a better part for cheaper in the future. And you can't even use any of the parts as long as you're missing some.
