i want to build a new Gaming Rig for BF4, GTAV, Smite, Dota2.

Budget 2k exclude Monitor(Dell 2312HM), keyboard and mouse, and reuse my WD 1T black hdd.

Will be overclocking and need SSD, Win7.

Thanks.

16gb with 1600mhz bandwidth. 2166mhz is useless for gamers. And gpu if possible, get gpu with 3/4gb vram for future games. 2gb vram is going to be like minimum few years later.

Its an oc rig. If you gonna oc using 1600mhz then you will decrease your overall ram performance at certain oc speed of cpu.

If he does know how to oc, i think he does know how to oc his ram as well. That's my opinion. if not by default get high ram bandwidth.
