Hi All,
Ultimately, the main goal of this build was to build a some-what future proof rig that would allow me to play games on Ultra for the next few years. Having the ability to OC as well is something that I'd like to have to.
With the launch of the GTX 980, I feel like this rig will be able to meet my expectations. With that being said, I'd love to get some feedback on this build.
Thanks for your feedback in advanced, it's greatly appreciated.
