Hello Everybody,
I've put together an extremely basic build right now that I'm planning on expanding over the next few months/year. I will be adding things like GPU(s), water cooling, etc etc. I was wondering if my build was compatible and if there were any things I could cheaply improve on, or if I am getting useless parts that are not for me.

Some things I'm skeptical on.
1) Is the motherboard I currently have overpriced for its TUFF armour, or is it actually good?
2) Considering that fact that I WILL expand, do I need a full or mid tower?
3) Is the current CPU right for my needs? Is it overkill?
4) Is my PSU too much? (750 W)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Approximate Purchase Date: Sometime before the end of this year
Budget Range: Under 3k (budget is constantly growing, at 1k right now)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Homework, media (music/pictures/video), gaming (if I ever decide to play one)
Parts Not Required: RIGHT NOW, OS
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Country: America
Parts Preferences: Asus, Intel
Overclocking: If I ever manage to figure out if I need to or not
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe someday in the future
Monitor Resolution: Something... good
Additional Comments: I don't care about looks, I care about performance. Nothing I do is very professional, so I have something thats overkill, don't hesitate to tell me. I don't game, but if and when I have a computer that can manage a game or two I might get into it.
