I am not great at builds with WC but this guy is either sandbagging for viewers or is a first time builder.

I got my Swiftech up faster than this guy is taking to figure out his case, and that's saying a lot.

He wasn't under the influence of anything I know of, he read the manuals like no one does. 
I had him up for almost two hours and he had is ram and cpu on the MOBO, he was saving the GPU until he had it in the case, he then took an hour to figure out the cooling configuration on the case.

Critique this build.
Looking to build a system for my son for his Birthday/Graduation present.
One question I have, should I chose a different Mobo for better future compatibility or is this one good?
Kinda want the card and mobo to match so if I need a different mobo I will change the card to match.

You're building with an Intel board. "Future compatibility" is getting a solid year.

Yeah, as stated above, there's no such thing.
Solid $1,000 build. I have no substantive critiques, except that you might as well get this faster memory for $5 less.

You ever find you memory leak? I've tried so many damn programs to find it and they all suck.

Yeah, a page or two ago I mentioned that one of the Google results pointed to a bug with Intel HD drivers and full-screen games in non-native resolutions, or some shite like that. It seems like a long-shot, but I uninstalled Intel HD GPU drivers, and windows memory allocation seems to be behaving as it should, although I still get pretty heavy memory usage in Chrome, and it takes about 10-15 seconds for memory usage to drop after closing chrome windows.

Yeah, I saw that one mentioned, but since I'm on AMD that was a no go.
I had an older version of Java installed as well as the latest, so I uninstalled Java completely and so far it seems okay so idk.
Amazing that all of the programs out there they all completely suck, I have tried damn near every single one.
VMMap with Dopus seemed to be the best one, but the stack never showed the program/driver causing it, they all just said Dopus.
ETA: Yep pretty sure it was that old arse Java conflicting with the latest Java. Since uninstalling that Java 7 old arse one, no issues with RAM the last few hours playing games. Reinstalled the latest Java 8 45 and good to go it seems. Crazy thing is that I have no idea how that old of a Java got installed in the first place, I certainly didn't do and this is a fresh Win 8.1 install from a month ago, Webroot scans were clean.

Thanks for pointing out the faster memory. I got it all on order today.
Has anyone here ever used the r/microsoftsoftwareswap to purchase keys?
Thinking about picking up a Windows 8.1 key for this build.
