Planning to spend around $750 after rebates. PC is for gaming, such games include BF3, Skyrim, TF2, Borderlands, etc. MONITOR INCLUDED

This will be my first build. I have a friend who has spent at least $3000 on his who will be helping me. I plan to unlock 2 more cores from the processor, which is what everyone does with that CPU. I also plan to overclock. The motherboard I chose is well suited to the CPU.

Are there any final recommendations you have for me? I decided to go AMD over intel i3, because you can't overclock an i3... If you think I should switch to that processor, tell me why?
