The CM 212 evo is OK for an i5.

Tom's liked ASRock Z97 Extreme 4 and Asus Z97-A better - http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/mainstream-gaming-z97-motherboard,3824.html

The CX are OK but not real good. A number of problems with them have been reported here. Try to get a PSU from tiers 1, 2a or 2b of http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html eg Seasonic 620, EVGA Supernova 750, XFX 650 or Antec HCG 620M

That cooler is fine if you doesn't matter about the heat, i could say the AIO water cooling it's better if you pursuit more than 4.4Ghz but if you on a tight budget i recommended shadow rock 2 that cost twice more than the 212 EVO. For power supply efficiency it's very important, but again it's depends on your budget. If you budget it's enough, get the gold efficiency like CSM650 it fit for you

 

[Marco Oliveira]

In yours opinion this is better Board?
Motherboard Asus Maximus VII Ranger

PSU i want Corsair can use
Corsair CX-750W (80+) or XFX Modular Pro 650W XXX

 

[LukaBoki]

Yes,that board is awesome.
For the PSU,use a XFX XTR 650W Fully-Modular PSU.

 

[Marco Oliveira]

Is more 60€ GRRR...
More opinion this board Motherboard Asus Maximus VII Ranger is Good for my config and OC
System coller Hyper 212 EVO can support 4.5Ghz or something??? I want put Corsair Hi80 but i'm afraid of water

 

[Wima]

Personally, i will choose the asus over the msi

CX is okay, but it's not great PSU from corsair. And 750 it's overkill for your rig, 650W it's more than enough. With that you could add up to 10 drive storage

 

[LukaBoki]

The 212 EVO should support up to 4.2-4.3 GHz.
You can get a Noctua NH-D14.Best air cooler ever.
Don't worry,the H80i won't leak.You have nothing to be afraid of.It's a closed water loop.
XFX Core 650W isn't modular,and it's $80,while the XTR is $110.

 

[Marco Oliveira]

I will add only one HD 1TB Segate, PSU XFX Modular Pro 650W XXX or Corsair Modular CS-650W M Cert 80 PLUS GOLD

Personally, i will choose the asus over the msi

Coller system is my problem whenever i do oc in my computers hehhehe

The 212 evo it's good for performance value, but i doubt it when you @4.5Ghz it will below 80ºC

BIG vote on H80i and that much much better, don't worry about leak. If you plug in properly it work well
For PSU pick which is long warranty. Corsair give 3-years warranty for CSM650

 

[Marco Oliveira]

Ok forget Corsair PSU...

Colling system is problem becouse i dont have much more €€€... Some cheap soluttion?

 

[Marco Oliveira]

Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 5 Intel Z97 is better Motherboard Asus Maximus VII Ranger one friend are tell me to change the board but Gigabyte is better?

[Wima]

Those two PSU it's good but just with bronze efficiency, if you doesn't matter with the efficiency get it the modular ones for better cable management. At least it's 80+ bronze
I still vote for asus maximus, but if you get the gigabyte you could save money and reallocate to CPU cooling. Or maybe get the H80i. If you insist get the maximus, the 212 evo it's fine then. But i doubt it when you looking 4.5Ghz with that

 

[Marco Oliveira]

know this Thermalright HR-02 Macho???

Corsair Modular CS-650W M Gold vs XFX Modular Pro 650W XXX Edition Bronze

[Wima]

That's a great cpu cooler too. Personally i pick the gold efficiency rather than a bronze, corsair CSM series it's a good PSU for gold and that's it.
If i could say, save your money for better build so you not disappointed when your rig is done

Yes,it's a great setup.I would change the CPU cooler to a Hyper 212 EVO.
You can do SLI with that motherboard,but not with that PSU.
An EVGA Supernova G2 1000W is a great option if you're intending to do SLI in the future.

 

[Marco Oliveira]

Hyper 212 EVO. can support 4.5ghz lolol

EVGA Supernova G2 1000W dont sell in Portugal... XFX or Corsair
