Avexir apparently OEM for top RAM suppliers.

fit into this motherboard. Also would that memory be good?

OEM is what the manufacturers get, it's basically just the CD key and the disc. none of the extra packaging which makes it cheaper.

What @Chippiewill; said above, but also just that you can't re-install it on another motherboard once it has been used - or at least that's what I was told anyway . OEM should be fine for you though, no need to pay extra for the other .

You also won't get any cables with an OEM part, such as the optical drive. You'll need to buy a SATA cable.

I'm not going to read through all 8 pages of this but I recommend these changes if you haven't made them already:

Intel i5 2500k -> Intel i5 3570k
EVGA PSU -> Corsair AX750 PSU
Remove Windows 7 and just pirate a copy.
Avexir RAM -> Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 2x4GB (you definitely do not need 16GB, at all [and the Corsair Vengeance is better { and prettier } ] )
The motherboard could do with an upgrade too if you don't want minor bottlenecking.

Not everyones cheapskates who need free stuff.

Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 2x4GB.

No need for the low profile version with such a large case.

Didn't even look at the case, not sure why I decided to put low profile. I pirated Windows 7 but I'm not a "cheapskate". I spend my money on things I believe are actually worth it, and Windows 7 certainly isn't.

Seems I struck a nerve.
