I was wondering if my motherboard is the best one for its value.
Most of the usage will be done on gaming such as League of Legends, Counter strike, Starcraft and Battlefield.
I had a look at the i7 processors and thought i wouldnt need them for gaming as i dont do much video editing.
I am set on the video card. Most help I would need is on the motherboard and cooler as I don't know much about them. I also dont think more than 8gb of RAM is needed atm. will the motherboard allow for extra Ram installation at a later point?
Any help is appreciated
Cheers guys:winkiss:

No, it's more efficient but it uses bad capacitors making it have a (relatively) high failure rate and some heat problems.

The one I recommended has everything your build needs.
