My first build

[Gynetic]

Im planning for this build in about 2 months, But then again I do wonder when the GTX 960 comes out.

Anyways I'd love to see opinions, Ill make it in 2 sections. One will be bought at first time, second will be my future upgrade plans.

I also have a question, Is it possible to match a Dual Channel 8GB set (CL8 1600) With a 2nd Dual channel 16GB set, and if yes also if the CL and speed is diffrent?

I will be gaming but everything on ultra is not a must, will also be doing some video editing, graphics and programming. Something I will spend most my time doing is watching series and movies but that doesnt really matter. I'm currently coming from an i5-2410M + GT 520MX and for some reason my CPU is running at a 95c at all times. (Only do some slight counterstrike so far it goes to gaming) while I had an AMD A8-4500 APU with 7640G + 7470M 1GB Dual graphics on my other laptop. So the performance increase should be very big.

(I do not plan to overclock)

I'm currently using 120GB of my 240GB SSD which is the reason why I wont get an HDD till later.

If you're not overclocking get the msi H97 instead of z87 the Z stands for that it's able to overclock the h is also cheaper further it's a great build
