What do you guys think of my build? I started out with a pre-built system but then decided to build my own. I will be overclocking

It all looks good to me! :) Yes, that SSD will speed up booting and game loading times. I put my OS and only the few games that I am currently playing and the rest goes on the HD.
Good luck!
I hope you like the motherboard, it got a gold award here

I am not talking about the hate in this thread, that I understand, but he is insulted all over the site in other threads with just random, generic insults

BIG NEWS!
As I did more research on the HP Omen X I found out that I can actually BUY the case! Yup, the complete empty case with a few accessories is sold separately! So I decided to build it myself! Well, actually since I live in Chicago I found a company that will build PCs from parts so...
WOW, as I said in my original post I am very impressed with the knowledge level of the users here. Plus you guys did a LOT of research for me, and I really appreciate it! Now you are probably both going to give me a hard time about this but the only reason I mentioned this PC was because I...
