Looking to build a new skylake gaming computer to replace the old core 2 duo I currently have. Mostly looking to game, with the occasional use of photo editting and storage. Looking to overlcock the skylake 6700k to around 4.8 ghz!
The price is about right, and I don't mind the nicer parts. Really would like some comments though and see if I'm missing anything for this build or some terrible incompatibility I have overlooked.
