Solution siddharthmukul007 Dec 24, 2013 parts are good...you will be able to upgrade to any pci-e 3.0 card at any point you want (provided your psu can power the card) you will be able to upgrade till 32gb ram. as for the processor, you will have to stick to an ivy bridge (haswell, etc will not be compatible)
