This rig can be overclocked and the Avexir comes with different colored LED's if you want green for the RAM.

That CPU is un overclockable but you wont need to OC it, Personally i would get an i5 4690k and take some of the other specs down a notch, DDR3 is still powerful and DDR4 isnt good right now price/ performance. This build he has leaves room for a CPU upgrade later if needed but i doubt you will need to
