Hello,

Could I have some feedback on this build please

I have around £800 -£1000 to spend on a gaming rig for today and future proofing it the most I can - don't think I will be overclocking - but might be nice to have the option to do so later on?

I have 16gb DDR3 1600mhz in my current rig which I was going to add to this too.

I mainly play Football manager (which is very processing/ram heavy) , FPS as well as anything that takes my fancy -

I don't need a monitor or keyboard mouse

would this be ok to Overclock in the furture? or would I need a different CPU and maybe a water cooling system? like the H55?

OK - would adding my current RAM in to this machine cause any issues?
I have Corsair Memory Vengeance Black 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz CAS 9 XMP Dual Channel

Should be fine, you may want to check the accepted memory list of the motherboard to be sure, but I'm positive the corsair would be fine.

Thank you I have done that and seems ok

Would like some advice if this is future proofed enough? Can go slightly higher on budget if it means longer lasting higher spec PC

The only way I can see you can futureproof further your build is to get a gtx 980 or a 650w psu.
