plan on buying a gpu after i build my computer since the integrated graphics are good enough for most things i hear. im just going to use old parts from another computer for the stuff im missing. i plan on trying out overclocking and trying to make the build as future proof as possible. i like to have a lot of things open like 100 tabs of firefox, with a game or 2 open while watching something on a different screen along with skype/mumble and stuff which is why i chose the cpu and ram. if there are any conflicts, improvements, or suggestions please let me know. thanks!
