Hey there, I'm planning to start this build around late November and I'll be mostly using it for gaming and everyday use. Also, I'm not in the US nor am I anywhere near it, but after converting the price from here to dollars, the budget should be equal to or less than $1500. I plan to get a ASUS VX239H monitor to accompany the rig. I do plan to overclock the CPU btw. So, what do u guys think about the setup and any opinions ??? Thanks.
