Hey all, building a budget computer for friendlike real budget <400$ (AUSTRALIAN), i already have a radeon 7750 at home i can use and also a 500w CM power supply but i'm just not sure what CPU/APU to go with, i was just thinking of going with a AMD A4-7300 but then i found out its not kaveri...

just quickly i found this on the noctua site and they say the ripjaws will fit. its a really good table about what ram fits with the NH-D14
with the power supply i might be adding another 7950 in the future so i'm going to need the extra Wattage, i don't know apprearntly the Evo 212 blocks the closests ram slot.
so should i get the low profile g.skill ARES(1866 or 1600???) and go with either the Noctua or CM?
and i don't know if i should overclock, because i want this pc to last as long as it can. do you think if i overclock with good cooling it will reduce my CPU and GPU life?
one of the main reasons as to why i want to get the H80 is because i don't want the ram slots blocked. if i was to get a fan cooler it would be the Noctua NH-D14 but will it block the ram slots because i might upgrade in the future.
and just to be on the safe side i wanted to get a larger PSU...
