Hello everyone,
This is my final build before placing my order to amazon/newegg/ncix. The pc will be used mostly for day to day activities but interested to play the latest games for the next couple years. Eventually in about 3-4 years, I'll add the second VGA and more memory (if needed). What I am asking here everyone interested to help is possible compatibility issues (especially on my hard drives, vga, memory). Already checked clearance issues on the h100i and it will be fine on this MOBO and case.
Thank you in advance.
