First of all, howdy, going to make this my first post. It's great to be here. Anyway, I'm going to be building a PC in a few months and I want to make sure I'm not bottlenecking anything too hard or making any dumb mistakes. I'm pretty well versed in parts and what they do, but I've not got much experience with the actual performance side of things. I'm not going for anything too high-end, but something that will do me for a while and won't be underwhelming. I'd like all the critique and comments I can get about the parts, if that's okay.
