New RIVE Build (Considering Some Parts)

Missing_Link
Level 7
New here and just like to say hello to all the mods and members first.
Starting new build and just need a little advice on some parts.

Parts Already.

Motherboard, Asus Rampage Extreme iv.
CPU, Intel 3930k.
GPU, Asus GTX 780.
SSD, Intel 520s 240gig.
Case, Cooler Master Cosmos II Ultra Tower.
All parts brand new and still in boxes.

Parts Considered.

PSU, Corsair 860i.
Water Cooling, Corsair h100i.
Memory/Ram i cannot decide on memory for the life of me
there is to many to pick from, that being said i was looking at
Corsair 16GB (4x4GB) 2133MHz DDR3, Dominator GT. or
Corsair 32GB (4x8GB) 2133MHz DDR3, Vengeance Pro.

I know the GT is very fast memory but it's only 16gig will the GT
out perform the 32gig of vengeance pro.
Appreciate any advice on memory modules and i have never used any
other type of memory than corsair and will the PSU and watercooling
be adequate for this build...Thanks for any help. cheers.

Just wanted to resurrect my old thread to tell everyone that my build is complete, PC fired up straight away and bios was 4004 default, Win 7 X64 was installed without any probs at all, this M/Board has work very well with no drama's at all and seems very stable, i added a pic of the build about 1hr before it was booted, all i had to install was ssd and blu-ray player, this build has been great fun and i'm very happy with the outcome...Thanks everyone.
