Good RAM choice but here is your motherboard's RAM specs "DDR3-2400+(OC)/ 2133(OC)/ 1866(OC)/ 1600/ 1333/ 1066 DIMM Slots" as you can see your ram speed needs overclocking so unless you go into the bios and set the RAM speed up you have a DDR3-1600 ram chip.
I'm not changing the story it's just I want a little bit of everything and that's why I went for gaming because it would be a good mix for what I need.
GPU: Yes I guess I could see why but as of being an extreme multitasker ([WARNING INCOMING STORY] I ruined a new computer in a week due to the amount of things I like to do at once and how fast I was trying to do it) I would like to keep every drop of performance but if you can come up with a cheaper GPU with around the same performance I would like that.
Motherboard Q1: I would only have 2 motherboards with 100% compatibility with Kavari but I will take a look at them for you.
Memory: To tell you the truth my dad helped me make this and he thinks tons of ram is better I would go for 8GB but he thinks 16 is better.
Motherboard Q2:
1. Is the VRM heatsink really needed and what is a VRM I don't think I have ever heard of it.
2. The chipset is the only one that pcpartpicker says supports all Kavari Processors.
I will double check the benchmarks, swap the RAM, swap the motherboard, and look at the HDD you recommended.
Wow same for me except the computer shown was given to me by my mom. It had a broken screen and if you look closely at the photo you will see duck tape put down by her.
