Hi guys, I'm getting a new gaming PC. I've chosen some parts that I think are good and I'm looking for feedback on my selection. Sourcing my parts of NCIX.ca, so some of toms hardware top picks don't make the cut because of pricing. Looking to spend around 1500 dollars in parts.
I'm looking to slightly over clock my CPU to 4.6GHZ. I think the cooler will be good enough for that but I'm not to sure if the motherboard is right for it. I don't want to SLI or cross fire, I also have several regular HD's around that I'll be using for storage space.
Bare in mind that this is in Canadian dollars.
