I'm mostly concerned with the Motherboard, CPU cooler, and PSU. I will likely overclock this at some point as well, just curious if I could find a cooler that is as good as the noctua for cheaper. I have a sdd/hdd already in my current build and I have the OS already as well. I appreciate any input on my build.
