16GB would be ideal, only if you have lots of background components while gaming or need the extra ram for rendering or 3D work.

 

You can buy Windows 10 for around 10 - 20 pounds on Kinguin, a trusted website, and use the saved money to get more ram or upgrade to a 1070Ti.

hi.

You install Windows using a USB stick or disk, then go to Kinguin and buy a Windows key to activate Windows.

Sorry to be a pain but my daughter has decided she wants a black theme with rainbow led fans so it will pop out a bit more, could you please do another build and she’s wanting a case that shows the fans at the front of the case.

Black case and components with lots of RGB. The aio is there mostly for the RGB fans. All RGB is compatible with the Asrock motherboard.
