Parts list

[alan101]

I was going to get a second 1080Ti but I keep hearing SLI not worth it so want to invest in improved RAM, Pump, and things like that. I Decided what PSU I wanted but undecided on the other components. I currently have 16GBs of Ram but want to up it to 32Gb and I Don't know much about pumps so any suggestions will help. I have a 600 to 700 budget. My current motherboard is a asrock Taichi Z37o motherboard and a IN Win 303 high airflow gaming case with tempared glass side. What does everyone think?

Is there a reason why you need a 1000 W PSU?

Yes indeed, that is the Project 7 (or P7) from AeroCool 

This one seems much more reasonable than you previous 1000 W PSU

[alan101]

I wanted to suggest the Corsair H115i PRO RGB 280 mm

https://www.newegg.com/global/br/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181138

 

However, since your case does snot support 2 x 140 mm fans, I would say that you could go for the Corsair H115i PRO RGB 360 mm:

https://www.newegg.com/global/br/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16835181139

That way you can run the fans a little bit slower and thus reducing the noice that will be produced.

The Corsair H115i PRO RGB 360 mm should be mounted at the top:

 

 

The three fans that you currently have at the top of your case should then be moved to the bottom as inlet fans. The single 120 mm fan that you have can be left where it's at. Eventually you will have the following air flow setup:

If you are not doing intensive simulations/rendering/(video) editing, then you should be fine with 16 GB of RAM for gaming purposes. However, if you really really really want to upgrade, then upgrading your RAM can be a good choice in your situation.

However, note that while gaming, you definitely won't be using 16 GB.

I'm actually looking for the spacifications (clock speed, CAS latency etc.).

I would suggest downloading Speccy: https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy and run the program (rest assured - it's completely clean )

This program checks every component in your system and gives you every specification possible.

There you should be able to see the part number of your RAM modules.
