I put in an order for PNY 16GB 2400 DDR4 that's temporary out of stock. Not sure if it'll match up well with my build?

After look at your link I see mine is double sided Samsung die.
Is this a bad thing?
I remember reading somewhere that the single sided Samsung are the ones to go for as they run/overclock better?

Worth the upgrade ? I game on 1440P so that boost would be good

you'll only see a 20%ish gain

unless you need to push 4k, it's not a very good value long-term

i would rather sell the monitor and get g-sync like the XB271HU...slightly cheaper than the 1080 Ti and will give your money a run for much longer than a video card can

^ even cheaper now...but still the budget of an entire capable rig

plug: unloading some dell gift cards if anyone's in the market for new monitor, laptop, video card etc...stack it with ebates and coupon codes for maximum win

Unless they are producing a lot of noise, I would just keep them until they break. If you really want to replace your fans, I would get Noctua fans. They are pretty quiet in general.

Wish I had seen this a week earlier. Just bought this from Best Buy for $219 (lowest price locally at the time of this post).

Btw Best Buy will price match Memory Express but they only beat the difference by 10%, not the total price.

If you have a full sized case and a PSU shroud, extensions might be fine and is cheaper.
