That GTX 1080 is going to go a long way, man. This is going to be a beast comp regardless.

I was avoiding the K as I didn't want my son to frazzle the cpu in an overclocking gone wrong but I made this post to ask for advice and I'm going to take yours. Might as well have the capability for down the road.

Thank you for the advice.
