Hello! I am new to the community, and I have a question for you all today. I am in need of an experienced desktop builder to assist me in the process of building a gaming desktop. After doing some research, I came up with a list of parts I think would be suitable to use.

OK, now that you read that part, here are my questions:
1. Will all these work together?
If so...
2. Where can I save money, without losing too much performance? (I was thinking maybe the Processor and Graphics card, but I am not sure)
3. Is there better alternatives to these parts?
4. What are some other parts that won't run up the price, but add performance?
5. Am I missing anything? If so.. what?
6. Are there any tutorials that i can follow to help me build the desktop?
And some questions on performance...
1. Will this build be able to play games like Skyrim, GTA V (when it comes out), Crysis, and Dishonored on High setting?
2. Will I be able to overclock this?
Keep in mind, I am building this for gaming so I need the best cost to performance. Thank you ahead of time!
