GPU-Z is a small-sized software utility that collects information on the computer's graphics card and sensors, while allowing users to supervise temperature, used memory and other data.

I just built my 1st PC at the very end of June and mostly just relied on my iPad for all my internet needs before that.
The only thing I know about OC and GPU software are what's in the bios, MSI afterburner and EVGA pressicion X16 however I don't plan on overclocking until the summer heat goes away. This is the only info I got on it. I've been watching popular PC YouTube channels for about a while now though but only Linus Tech tips and NCIX on a daily basis.

If you're curious about what your ASIC is, the download GPU-Z, then right-click in the top left corner and select the ASIC option. GPU-Z gives you basically all of the important information relevant to your video card, CPU-Z does the same thing for your CPU and RAM.
Beyond that, it would be helpful to know what you're looking to accomplish, in order to make appropriate suggestions. If you're looking to OC your video cards, then it sounds like you already know about the relevant programs.

I can't really give you details but I just saw multiple GPU-Z software. Example: ASUS rog, MSI, others as well as none brand specific.
I just want to know people's opinion on which one they think is the best and maybe more user friendly.

You were asking for people's opinions as to what software you should get for a 'custom desktop build'. I'm saying that it's difficult to make suggestions when no one knows what you're going to be doing with the PC.
You said that you 'don't really plan on overclocking', so then what would you like the suggestions for? For example: are you going to be encoding videos, gaming, using it as a shop/work PC, etc.? This type of info is necessary in order for people to make relevant suggestions.

It's on for long periods of time, sometimes 12 hours+ But (CravinR1 said that they are all the same just different skins) so does it really matter what I'm using it for? Not software in general, a specific software version of GPU-Z.
Yes I will be overclocking, I just said not at the moment so I could have one that's good for the job when I do. When it comes down to it, the overclocking box is check marked. I'm using an ASUS X99-E WS mother board and one of my monitors is ASUS so might as well download the ASUS ROG version from CPUID. Sorry if I confused you on the question.
