Hello everyone!

I plan on getting all of these parts for my build this holiday,

I plan on overclocking now and upgrading in the future.

Do you plan on installing your Operating system onto your graphics card?

You left out a storage option, throw in a <$50 1TB Drive, and in an $800 build you should really consider an SSD, even if it's just a 64GB for OS and core programs, which will run you anywhere from $25-40 depending on if you get a good deal.

Not sure what you are getting at installing os on my graphics card? But I will be transferring my OS via USB, I also have a 1TB HDD (Sorry should have stated that xD) and I plan on getting an ssd a little bit after the build, but regardless, how are my choices of parts?

If it's too much drop the SSD.
OR
Better Cooler, No SSD

Thank you, but would I not need a water cooler if I want to overclock?

Also, I know it's your opinion, but I would rather not have the whole build changed, I want to know if the parts I have chosen are good.

And please keep in mind I do want to overclock and be able to upgrade knowing that my parts will be able to handle my upgrades

No you don't have to have a water cooler. The build I suggested is better. Skylake is newer than Haswell. You'd be better off going with the Skylake and won't have to upgrade your ram to DDR4 from DDR3 like your build would, assuming you would upgrade to Skylake later on.

H60 is meh anyway and overclocking on it would be no-no, Case is average and PSU Is big no-no so 110% change the cooler and PSU for safetys sake.

Case is meh, over-priced. Cooler is poo, as is the PSU. No need to spend so much on mobo really.

Cheaper, and better;

Use the remaining money to grab yourself an SSD.

I've heard good about the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO cooler. Should I get it?

No, the Cryorig H5 is far superior.
