I don't plan to overcolack for a few years when need for a bit stronger processor arises... i won't SLI or crossfire... will use only one card.

I do a lot of gameing and my computer is allmost allways in use either gameing or working (graphich web design).

I don't know much about motherboards, all i see is it has 6 gb sata ports, 3.0 x16 pice for gpu, enough 3.0 usb ports,
will it overheat, is it good or bad? i don't know..so any help and advice will be greatly appriciated...
