They make 1 new product each year, in order to boost sales they just make weaker versions of it, some with cut functionalities or cheaper/less ram in the case of the VGAs others with just reduced voltage and frequency or with locked functions in the case of the CPUs.
In your case Haswell is one single engineered chip made different in order to cover the market better.
So overclocking allows you to get more performance per dollar. It is funny how Intel charge you extra for it with the software made lock on all non K CPUs.
I know overclocking gets more performance per dollar but I have a tendency to fry things I try and improve :|

It appears I forgot to update the main post regarding build switching. That's done now.

EDIT: What? 500 gigs for a purly OS HD? Lolwat?

Noticed your chosen motherboard supports up to 32 gig of DDR3-2800 speed ram, but you are only getting DDR3-1600 speed. If you only really need a minimum of 8 gig I would suggest going with 1x 8 gig of some faster memory. That motherboard has 4 slots so you can always add up to three more sticks later, (to max it out) if need be.

Classic rule of thumb: A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. A computer is only as fast as it's slowest part. Smile
To my knowledge, the higher speeds of RAM aren't shown to have any significant effect on overall computer speed.
