OK so I'm a bit of a noob here and am looking to build a new computer for gaming and i havent done this in quite a few years, primarily it will just be for the new final fantasy 14 but im also looking into getting into fps and maybe a few rpgs. basically I'm just looking for advice on what I've chosen, I have also gone a bit ott on what my price range was but it seemed worth it. The build im looking at is listed below, getting the price down would be good but also if there is major benefits to buying an upgraded part or 2 i don't mind paying a little extra for it. I would also like to know what sort of overclocking capabilities this build is going to have aswell.
