Few Questions i have are.
1) Good build that will last me 5+ Years ( 10 Being Extreme )
2) Would i be able to OC The CPU to its max Safe Sweet Spot with the CPU Water Cooler i got or Should i get something better? )
3) Once i add a few GPU's will it be able to Function without Bottle Necking ?
4) Is this Ram Speed n Specs fine or do need faster RAM ?
5) 256 GB SSD Enough for me to store Win7 64-Bit, League Of Legends, VM Workstation 10, FL Studio 10?
