This is my first time building a PC. I had a friend give me some pointers in my selection for a gaming PC. I'd love to know if there are any compatibility issues that I missed or if there are better/cheaper alternatives to the parts I've chosen (or if there is anything missing for that matter). Also, should I buy a separate cooler and replace the stock one? Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
