So I want to build my first rig with decent specs. I want to be able to overclock it. I built a pc and need to know if I should stay away from certain things. If this list is good, I would most likely order everything from Newegg. Is this a trusted seller?

Some radical overchanges would need to be made in order to spend your money in the best way. NewEgg is quite large lol, ofc its trusted
