Hi all,
After much tinkering and help from others in the forums I've come to this for my final build. It's intended to be 'future proof' as well as mainly being used for gaming. Later down the line once the 1080 has dropped in price I will be purchasing that. Overclocking is an option but not essential, it will only be something minor as well, no pushing hardware to it's limit. Opinions?
