you will be running the memmory in Dualchannel which require 2 sticks of memmory. a single stick is preffered to be avoided on Ryzen.

 

no VRM heatsinks so its a no-go. 

as one mentioned. 8GB of ram is not something you pair the r7 2700x with. you can probably get an r7 1700 and a b350 PRO4 board and 16GB of ram which i would guess is better for your workload. 

What about two sticks of 8GB 3200mhz ram?

that would be what you are looking for, you often find them in kits instead of buying seperatly

I would rather get a 2600 with 16 gigs than a 2700 with 8 gigs.

Thanks for the advice guys! I'll keep researching and I'll look around for some good deals
