This is my first build.
I plan to:
Have this computer last for at least 3 years
Moderately overclock everything
Add more HDD space later
Add another GTX 970 later
Add another 8gb of 1833mhz RAM later
Never use ethernet
Never put water cooling in my build
Run 1080p ultra at 60fps
Run 1440p high at 60fps on sli compatible games after second gtx 970
Run Sony Vegas reliably
Stream reliably
Will this build achieve all these things?
I'm only buying from Newegg, Amazon, Best Buy, and directly from the manufacturer.
If not, please make some recommendations.
