First i would like to say this is my first build pc/hackinosh ever. I intend to use this machine for editing videos mainly timeline edits not many special effects. If possible id like to wait on getting a GPU if possible due to lack of funds, but the build is urgent because i cant even view footage on my MBP without dropping frames. I also plan to overclock in the future but no right off the bat.

Definite buys

Skip the TH motherboard if you won't be buying external storage i.e. TH enclosures.
If you will do a lot of over clocking, get the OC board. If you just need a good basic
board get the Z87X-UD5H. You can still over clock but it doesn't give you a lot of
extra tweakability. Good luck on your build :!:
 
Thanks man only reason i thought about it was to future proof it for myself
