Only things that jump out at me are that you don't need a cooler - since that's a locked cpu it'll come with a stock cooler that'll do the job just fine - it's all I've got and it's doing a great job.
Not interested in playing bf1 right now but I'll probably get skyrim and the witcher 3 sometime in the next week. I'll post results up here when I get them if you want. Was it just fps you were after?
Only played Fallout 4 so far but that seemed to be holding fairly steady at 60fps on ultra. Haven't had any bluescreen issues yet, so right now I'd say 8gb seems to be plenty but then I've only had it up and running for about 24 hours and so far all I've done is surf the internet, download Steam and get a game going. When does yours tend to go over 8gb? Right now I'm sat at 3.5gb used.
Thanks! Yeah I reckon it could cope with VR but unfortunately unless I win the lottery the chances of me affording a VR headset any time in the next two years are pretty damn slim!
