Why'd you get a Cooler Master then? :p

ico said:
Corsair 500R is better. That's why. Better cable management and huge backplate space.

Yeah I kinda knew these 2 pluses.. was just digging more cuz he owns a Cooler Master!

yeah more inclined towards 500R anyway.

Okay another question. If i want 16GB RAM instead of 8GB should I just get 2 kits of the same 8GB Kit
i.e. [G.Skill RipjawsX F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL] X 2?
because 16gb kit of 2x 8GB has higher latency and anyway i wont be needing more than 16GB so filling up all the spots in not a problem.
What say?

Using 4x 4GB 1600MHz RAM in 4 slots will stop you from running all of them in 1600MHz. They can be run at 1333MHzCL9-2T config.
Personally tested. Don't know the reason.

Only AX750, AX850 & AX1200 are available in India AFAIK. Never seen AX650 in any shop.

So you're saying if i do want 16GB RAM I should get 8Gx2 1600Mhz CL10 kit?
Is running 4x 4G at 1333Mhz not advisable? Will 1333Mhz make a big difference when compared to 1600Mhz?
