I think I've finalized on some parts for my first PC build. However, I want to ensure that everything will mesh and as such, I'm posting here prior to having purchased it. Overall, everything will value to around $1400. I want this to be an amazingly fast and efficient gaming computer, along with having the ability to render HD videos quite rapidly. So, any and all feedback on this would be greatly appreciated:
