SSD = Samsung Evo 850 250gb

HDD = Western. D 1tb Blue 64mb SATA 3

GPU = Gigabyte GTX 970 4gb G.1 Gaming

PSU = Seasonic G Series 750W Mod

Is it value for money/perf to get the ddr4 instead?

Looking at full tower case but have not decided on the model.
Gaming at 1080p but do not need to be max out.
No color preference.
Hmm then do you guys think getting a cpu cooler fan is needed?

if you are intend to OC, then its good to have cooler fan to replace stock fan. If not, stock fan will do just fine.

Im using stock fan.. playing BF4, and my system temperature is not more than 46 deg.
