That ram should be pretty good at overclocking. I've seen those reach 1800mhz, I'm not too familiar with i7 overclocking. But when the time comes, I'm sure someone will help you out.

Alright cool! :D And that would be awesome. One last question. What does the bracket do and do I need it? Can't wait to get this build.

P.S. How would I go about returning my old ram? I purchased it from Newegg.com.

So heres the final build:

Besides not being a huge 4870x2 fan despite that fact it offers great performance May I suggest sticking with 1 DVD-RW burner and getting the 750w for the extra $15 more

headroom never hurts

I only have one DVD-RW burner. The other one is just a readable drive. And is that power supply better than the one mentioned by gt7sanremo? If so, can someone confirm this?
 
I forgot to mention, I will be using this for gaming, PS, Video Editing, and Fruity Loops Studio(Music Producing Program) Will be getting a MIDI keyboard. So my question is, will i need anything else to get the best for all of these needs? Like a sound card or a midi port?
