Windows 10: New ASUS tower Gaming Computer

It arrived today ! Whoopie! But I couldn't get more than a minute to sign in before it froze. If it didn't cost so much, it would serve well as a target. Any way I'm stuck in the blue screen... if the keyboard, mouse and all freeze before one gets to windows, how do I get this thing running.

New Gaming Computer

Hi Everyone,
It's time to build a new gaming rig. Below is a list of the parts I have picked to build, but undecided between two mother Boards.

Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO MoBo
Intel Core i7-4790K CPU
Corsair H100i GTX Liquid Cooler
Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2x8) DDR3-1866 Memory
Samsung 850 Pro Series 256GB 2.5" SSD
Western Digital Black Series 1TB 7200RPM 3.5"Hard drive
Evga Super Nova 750G2 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fuy-Modular ATX Power Supply
Evga GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB Superclocked + ACX 2.0 + Backing Plate GPU
Corsair 760T White ATX Full Tower
Corsair Link Lighting Node
Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

The other MoBo I was considering was the Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gamimg GT. I need something that is somewhat user friendly for overclocking.

Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks *Smile
