Hello,
I am building a Gaming PC for the first time. I have pieced together the following items based on research I have done. I am looking for something that will run great out right now but has room for overclocking in the future. I may also crossfire in the future. I need help with memory suggestions and adequate power supply. Any other advice on component alternatives to either save money or get more bang for my buck would be greatly appreciated also. Thanks in advance! Here is a list at what I am looking at:
--ASUS EAH5850 DirectCU TOP/2DIS/1GD5 Radeon HD 5850 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121370

Debating between these two Motherboards:

Also need help on what CPU cooler I should go with for overclocking purposes. Thanks again in advance. I am a new user to this community and look forward to being an active member.
