Answer» Hey guys, so in a matter of 3 posts I have received tons of help, special thanks to Geek-9pm and camerongrey for the very helpful advice and information. I think I have come to a conclusion on my gaming rig. I am still willing to change it if NEED be, so tell me what you think. Question: Will corsair vengeance PRO memory fit beside or underneath a Cooler master hyper 212 evo on a z97 maximus VII? Rig: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/JTBOT65/saved/NRvdnQLooks good, Only a couple of things: That CPU has a locked multiplier therefore can't really be overclocked, if you want the ability to overclock then you will need the i5 4690k. Why do you need the sound card? Unless you have some sort of extreme audio setup, you would be absolutely fine with the onboard sound. Personally I would leave it out at first then add it in later if you really feel that you need it. Honestly I tend to not like overclocking, I have heard that in the long run it can cause damage to your CPU. I feel the 4690 in this case is better. Also I have no idea why I chose the sound card really haha, It just sounded like something cool to get my hands on for a bit better audo Quote from: JTBOT65 on August 12, 2014, 01:01:39 PM Honestly I tend to not like overclocking, I have heard that in the long run it can cause damage to your CPU. That's fine. As far as damaging it goes, you have to do something pretty stupid to break the CPU. In theory it could shorten the CPU's life but the CPU will likely be totally obsolete and no LONGER in use by the time this happens. Since you aren't overclocking you could safely get away with a cheaper motherboard with an H97 CHIPSET such as one of these: http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/motherboard/#qq=1&c=100&sort=a8&m=8,18.I'll look up some reviews on this motherboard, it seems pretty decent for the price http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-gah97gaming3 also, can you answer my ram question?That Gigabyte one looks fine. Not sure if the RAM will fit under the heatsink for sure but worst case you can just put it in the slots further away from the CPU, from what I can tell at most it will overhang one slot, if any.
