Hello good people on Tomshardware forum, I come today looking for advice and any info you might want to share with me on this build i am going to do. I am going to build two of these machines. One for my personal computer, and one for a friend. I want to know if there is anything that might conflict with these parts. To the best of my knowledge, nothing is wrong, but I would like to have a second opinion just to be safe. Thanks

I'm looking at the part and everything should work together but what are you guys using the PC for? I see that you got an aftermarket cooler so I'm expecting some over clocking, but then I notice that you got a pretty entry level Graphics Cards.

I am using the machine for light gaming, And Id much rather go with an Nvidia card instead of an ATI card. Mainly because of the PhyX on the GPU. This is a machine to replace my laptop, And yes I will be doing some light overclocking. And Im not really interested in using any Intel product right now, nor am I interested in using an i3 for light gaming and graphic design. And the other machine someone is paying for and im building it for him. I was just looking for some advice with any parts, Including the after market CPU cooler.
