Hi all,
I will soon be investing around £1700 in a new system, and I have selected some hardware. The only problem is, are they recommended, and do they work together?
The system I plan on building features:
Case: Corsair Crystal 570X
MoBo: Asus RoG Crosshair VI Hero
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700X
RAM: 16GB G.Skillz TridentZ RGB RAM
Video Card: ASUS RoG STRIX 1080 8GB
PSU: Corsair RM750X
Storage: Samsung Evo 850 240GB SSD
WD Blue 2TB HDD
Now, you may be wondering about the cooler. I haven't put a cooler down as I am not sure what cooler I should use. I am thinking of using a Corsair H115i AIO, however as this is my first fully built PC and it is expensive, is this a good choice? Or would it be more recommended to purchase an air cooler such as the Noctua NH-D15? All help is appreciated!
Next, the case fans. I am aware that the case comes with 3 SP120 fans in the front, and are controlled by a Corsair Controller. Would it be possible to control these using CUE? Or would I have to strip out the fans, and replace them with LL series? If that's the case, where would 6 LL Series fans go? Again, terribly sorry for such noob questions but all help is appreciated.
Thanks all, feel free to make any more recommendations.
Jack.
