Hey guys, i'm building my first PC next weekend and just thought i'd run the basket past you to check i've got everything and parts are compatible and the such.
Pc will mostly be used for gaming but I also record gameplay tutorials for Youtube so will be required to render 15-20 minute HD videos a few times a week.

Any input appreciated, thanks in advance.

My PC is also the main source of music in my house so i'd prefer to keep the sound card, and thought i'd pick up a higher PSU so I have room for upgrades. At this price range, money isn't really a limitation at the moment so I may throw an SSD on top aswell.

Thanks

Yea I've heard good things about the i5 2500k but I wouldn't know where to start with overclocking so it would definitely be a project. Already flashing the 6500 and I'd say I'm pretty novice in the tweaking department so I thought I'd leave that alone for now.

Considering the 2500k overclocked bundle now, thanks for the suggestion.

Ahh you've convinced me, swapping CPU out for the 2500k. Cheers guys!
