I previously came to this forum for advice on my first pc build totaling $400, and I would like to say thank you to all the people that helped me. I have been saving my money for quite some time now, and decided it is time for a new build. Since my pc can barerly play todays titles at 20 fps lowest settings, I am building a new pc. Here is my part list:

While I have been doing research on my own, I would appreciate some things being anwsered:
1. What performance can I expect from today's titles, especialy "Ark : Survival Evolved"?
2. With decent cooling what overclocks can I get from this?
3. Should I change anything?
Thank You For Reading This Thread and I hope this will be anwsered.
