It's nearly impossible to max you the full 8GB of RAM inside your computer. Only if you're rendering in Maya on the highest settings. Then again that might not even max it out.


Since you're not doing hardcore editing, 8GB will be more then enough.

Also, the Kraken X40 is a great cooler, just highly priced for what it is. I would recommend getting a H80 or a Phanteks PH-TC14PE...
