The biggest difference between the $110 boards and the $125 boards is a few features and fan headers usually. Also typically have 16x/0x OR 8x/8x capability. Cheaper boards are limited to 16x\4x. That is where the SLI support comes from.

But I draw the line at the base audio package. Often the Realtek ALC892 vs the superior Realtek ALC1220. Makes a big difference in the sound quality.

Also you have decent sized heatsinks on the MSI. The ASRock has some, but not on all the phases. Not necessarily a bad thing, but when overclocking you want as much cooling in that section as possible. Another case where air coolers can be more effective since they put some air flow across the motherboard. Honestly I don't know why the All-In-Ones don't...

Compatible yes, but far from ideal.

Personally I think the i3-8350K is a waste of money. Better CPUs available from AMD for overclocking on the low end. I would take the i5-8400 in your shoes. Get the two extra cores over the clock speed advantage. Then you also no longer need to buy a cooler or an unlocked motherboard.

No sense buying a 4x4GB kit. Just get a 2x8GB kit, these are dual channel boards.

If you really want the appearance of 4 sticks, some of the memory companies are now selling dummy RGB memory modules.

Power supply is not a very good one.

I'll put something together after I figure out how much all of that is. What is your budget, also what monitor?

Fairly close to getting an i5-8600k into the mix as well as a larger SSD and a better power supply. So if we can push the budget up to $1200 it should be easy to get a 240mm water cooler in there as well.

It won't all be from Newegg. Though if you change out the motherboard (which is the cheapest I could find that supports SLI (which is pointless at this point) and a premium audio package, with your original choice then it would all Newegg and Amazon. Might also consider a slightly better SSD just so you can stay off the Newegg Marketplace, you never know where that is going to come from, could take weeks to arrive.

A little high even with a GTX 1070. You could opt for a smaller SSD, but I don't recommend that. Best savings available would be going with an air cooler for around $40, or heading back to the i5-8400 and a non-overclocking board.

Another case where air coolers can be more effective since they put some air flow across the motherboard. Honestly I don't know why the All-In-Ones don't come with an optional mount for a fan to go on top of the pump. Basically what they do on hybrid GPUs to keep the VRMs cool.

Either will work. Just up to you if the cost difference is worth it.
