I am building a 1440p (preferably) gaming PC. I play FPS games as well as open world and RPG games and that is why I am going for a 1440p 144hz monitor. I just hope the 980 Ti will be able to handle all those pixels. I plan to overclock the i5 to 4.4ghz. Also, there is a notification on pc part picker that says that because the GPU is too long, some drive bays may be unusable. Aren't drive bays just for DVDs and such? If they are, why would it be a problem because the P400S doesn't even have options for an optical bay? Not much else to say. How is the build? Any suggestions for improvements? Thanks!
(~$2000 budget)
