Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: I have a Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250 GB SSD, need everything else.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg, Amazon, others if recommended.
Location: TX, U.S.
Parts Preferences: Intel CPU is a must
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe, I would like the option because I may need 3+ monitors.

I am flexible on all components. I want to "future proof" within reason. I want to overclock the system. I selected the motherboard based on some of the Build/Vote contests but not sure if there is better for the price. Wireless built in is a plus because of where it is located.
