Hello, so i am a first time builder, an have been working on my parts list for a while now, i thought i would just check that all my parts were in order and of a good quality. I plan to overclock my cpu. I am not a serious pc gamer, but like to plan games like Lol, Minecraft and CS GO. I am working under price constraints so if you suggest a partplease make sure it is a simular price to the one you are replacing!

Unless you plan on becoming a serious gamer in the future?

Made a few changes http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/GgsnNG I would have chose a Intel pentium g3258 or a AMD FX 4300, but what you have now is fine
