    1st needs to be a z87/97 bored for a good OC. I got my g3258 to 3.8 on an h87 and 4.6 on a z97.
    Me personally, when i change parts, i do a full install of the OS. Just makes sure nothing is loading that doesnt need to and drivers arent clashing.

    So below is the first progress in this build, today I wanted to get the sections cut out for the acrylic windows, 
    get the back piece of MDF wood cut out which will act as a support for the whole build as well as provide a solid panel 
    for me to screw my motherboard tray and mount my power supply to.
     

     
    These 2 panels were cut out using a dremel. First I taped up all of the edges which help to create a nice clean cut and it 
    also reduces the risk of me slipping and accidentally scratching an area. Second I marked out with a pencil the area 
    that needed to be cut so I had a guide line to follow. When using the dremel I let it do the cutting instead of forcing it which 
    normally leads to slips. After the windows were cut I filed the edges down to remove any bumps and loose metal. 
    Last I grabbed the dremel and a polish wheel and ran that along the edges to make sure it had a nice smooth clean finish.
     

     
    In the back panel I wanted to add a MDF panel to strengthen the build and provide an area for me to mount the motherboard tray to. 
    I cut out the panel using a jigsaw and filed it down to size. The panels have screws in them so I had to cut some grooves in the 
    MDF so that the screws were not interfering with the installation of the Panel.
     

     
    Now that I had these cut outs complete I put the build back together to test fit some components to insure my ideas were going to work.
     

     

     
    For testing purposes I am just using my test power supply to see if I can mount the PSU in the correct space without ruining any other plans.
     

     
    All three windows are cut out and are ready for some plexi glass.
     

     
    Thank you for following the build everyone, please check out the video below for Progress 1 of the build in video and 
    some of the cutting processes and building process I went through.

    Firstly I wanted to show everyone what I started with and where I plan to head as the build progresses. 
    I did a very quick sketch up of the build as I vision it but kept it plain and simple not to give too much away before I actually progress with the build.
     
    Below is my first render and as you can see i have kept it very bare but i just wanted to show a general shape as to where this project is heading.
     

     
    So as you can see, I am aiming to create two separate sections, one essentially houses the components 
    and hides wiring while the other will be the main displayable area housing the motherboard and main parts of the PC.
     

     
    I forgot to take some images of the build before I put it together and started working on it however, 
    I found these two photos of it untouched so please excuse everything else on the photos.
     

     
    Below I have just sectioned the build off to see if components would fit or not and just placed a bit of paper down to create a temporary floor for the motherboard tray.
