The only reason I've chosen the "OverKill" parts was to keep up with my theme. I want an RGB themed gaming PC. I'm currently waiting to hook up this nice 28" ASUS Monitor, and I have my other PC going to be hooked up to the other two 23" ASUS monitors. 

 

I'm not really a big fan of AMD's Motherboards and those RAM sticks aren't doing it for me.

If I could afford getting the STRIX 1080TI I would.
