Specs:
Case - NZXT H200i
Motherboard - MSI B450I Gaming Plus AC
CPU - 2600X/2700X
CPU Cooler - NZXT Kraken X52/Wraith Prism Cooler
RAM - 16gb (2X8) Corsair Vengeance LED 3200mhz
GPU - MSI 1070 Ti Gaming 8gb
PSU - Corsair RM750x (ATX)
Storage - 240gb SSD, 1tb HDD
So I'm in a bit of a predicament... do I get the 2600X with the Kraken X52 or the 2700X with the stock cooler? Both options will cost roughly the same. I don't plan on overclocking, hence buying the X versions. I will use the PC mostly for gaming but I like the idea of the extra cores/threads the 2700X has, it also future proofs me a little bit more. If I choose the 2700X I will put NZXT Aer F 140mm fans in the front of the H200i as intake. As it will be quite restricted because I'm using an ATX PSU. Will this help the airflow for the GPU? Will a B450 board be able to handle the 2700X? If I choose the 2600X and Kraken X52, should I do push or pull? I only have room to do one. Also will I get any problems, bottlenecking etc with the 1070 Ti and 2600X/2700X? Thanks everyone!
