Hi everybody! I am brand new to building a PC. I have been researching it quite a bit but I still need a bit of help.
Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: This month
Budget Range: $600-$700 After Rebates, After Shipping
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, watching movies, audio production, surfing the internet
Are you buying a monitor: No.
Parts to Upgrade: Everything, building a brand new computer
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Anywhere
Location: Missoula, MT (USA)
Parts Preferences: AMD
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: YMaybe
Your Monitor Resolution: 1080P TV
Additional Comments: The quieter the better! The main game I want to play is Skyrim, but other games such as BF4 also interest me.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Getting rid of the console!
Here is what I have come up with so far:

The main questions that I have now are: is my motherboard a good choice for overclocking and future upgrades? I will probably upgrade to a new CPU in the future. However, I would like a GPU that will hopefully last a little longer. I also obviously need a PSU, and I would like one that will hopefully not need to be replaced once I start upgrading. Any recommendations? Is this case going to be fine for me? And finally, I will add WiFi and bluetooth but I don't really have any idea what the best way to do that is, so any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for all of your help everybody!
