yes it supports overclocking.
also there are better coolers than the MSI one for the 390, which would be advised as it will keep overall system heat down.
Also like Sanctorum said, the G1 is poo, grab an evga G2 PSU instead as they are of better quality.
I know I switched it to G2. I honestly want the razer case because my whole setup is black, and that case is darker, and so is the window on it. I'm going to keep the leds off. Do you think this build will be pretty quiet when not being pushed? [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

The 6600k will perform better in gaming, the 4790k will perform better in tasks that utilise hyperthreading. A 750W PSU doesn't really make sense. Either grab a good quality 550W PSU, or an 850W PSU for XFire support. I wouldn't really be pairing a black/red GPU and a black/white mobo in a black/green case.

If you want an i7 rig, get something like this;

Only reason to get a larger PSU is if you get an 850W unit for XFire support.

Get the Enthoo Pro over the H440. $30 cheaper, and just as nice. Not sure why you're adamant on not getting an SSD. I'd just grab the Z97 PC Mate as it'll do the job, but spend the extra $20 on the Z97S SLI Krait if you wish.

I mean I already have a 1.5TB, and I've only used 300GB in over 2 years of use. I would really need an ssd would I? Thanks for the help btw.

SSD isn't the same as HDD. Every rig deserves an SSD.
