Hello guys and thanks in advance for the help. Fisrt, I'll post my question and then the build that I'm ordering soon :
1. I want to overclock, do I have the good mobo for it?
2. I need suggestion for CPU cooling (air)
3. In general, does this build makes the cut for a great gaming system? I'm not really interested about spending much more then I'm already doing
