Provide any additional details you wish below.
Seems to me like the right build for any future upgrades like SLI, extra memory, perhaps even getting M.2 drives... and eventually overclock the components once games will get more higher in performance.
I'm wondering, though, if I should maybe get above 2400Mhz memory, maybe even a different/cheaper/better Corsair case.
Thanks for all the help - and hopefully will be the last time I ever create a discussion once I finally get my PC.
