Hi everyone,
Just a quick question. Of everything in this build, all I haven't purchased yet is the motherboard. Im torn between the Asus M5A97 LE 2.0 and the Asus M5A97 2.0. The only major difference I know is that the LE cannot overclock but the other one can. I'm wondering would there be any real benefit in gaming to overclocking my PC? Ill be playing games such as Day Z standalone, Assassins creed black flag, BF4, etc.
Any help is apperciated. Here is my build
