Yes, you are correct, thought it had Windows 7 Professional on the build, must have deleted. I have an unopened box of Windows 7 Pro that I did not use on another build I did for Audio production mixing and mastering that is in my studio.
Pro supports above 16GB RAM in case I ever need to upgrade as you know.
Thanks for the response. I did not see the GTX 970 in the list, so I was concerned.
I will also be playing games, and recording gameplay with the Elgato HD60 on the same computer(to another drive) as well.
