Need build help, suggestions welcome

[jamesellis]

Ok so I'm building this build: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/3LXu1
I just have a few questions that i hope can be answered.
Note: There is one stick of 8gb ram that will be installed later, also, ssd has to stay for those who are giving suggestions
1. Does the motherboard i have listed support over clocking
2. Is the cooling sufficient enough to over clock and keep it at a reasonable temperature

Also

Is there anyone out there that could suggest a micro atx, because I'm deciding between the two, but i would like to use the prodigy m

Thanks guys

I would take a guess to say the mobo supports over locking for the simple reason of ram speeds it supports. And the cpu cooler that you have will do just fine for over clocking with no issues that I can see. And the prodigy is nice, my friend has one and runs an h100i inside it and it's a nice case with plenty of room.

Yes it supports overclocking and yes the cooler is sufficient.

Rather than going for 16gbs of RAm (which I think you're trying to do) you should just get an 8gb dual kit. (2x4gb)

This will run better than 2 mismatched sticks. And if you're only gaming, you won't get near using 16 gbs of ram anyways.

This is a lot better for a little cheaper
