I purchased the I5 2500 and the asus board from mc yesterday for the bundle. After decide which parts to recycle, i am currebntly missing 2 time, a decent 1.5 ddr3 ram and a heatsink and fan and I plan for minor oc, to maybe 4.2


I am planning to:
buy either 4 gig ddr3 with Hyper 212+

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...a-_-na&AID=10440897&PID=3332167&SID=u00000687
$42.00 for the ram

http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master...YPH0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1294696007&sr=8-1
28.69 for hyper 212


or

buy 8 gig ddr3 and use stock and oc to maybe 4.2, I got some MX-2 left over so it should be better than intel stuff.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231417
$75.00

Which plan seems better?
