I'm looking for some opinions, suggestions, and verification on this PC build. I'm hoping for a lifespan of at least 5 years and with the number of overclocked components i'm a little worried. Am I simply being overcautious for no reason? Is there additional / better components like fans or heat sinks I can add to mitigate the problem (aside from water cooling)? Maybe I should resign to a non overclocked CPU?
