Hey Im making a build and im not sure what to change? i would like to take about $200 off but i dont know what to change. i dont want to change the mother board, graphics card or the cpu. i need a white case and this is for vr and other high demanding games. if i was going to keep this build how long would the computer be up to date (play most games no lag). Thx. do i need to buy anymore fans and/or cooling?

- Not such a good choice of a cooler, especially with an unlocked CPU, since you'll probably be overclocking.
- Pretty slow RAM for such a build.
- Expensive build, no SSD?
- 5400 RPM HDD?
- Not such a good choice on the power supply, again considering your budget.
- 1080p on a 1080 TI!?
 


Any good idea for a cooler?
I know i dont have much ram ill change to 32gb
Should i Change to ssd i need 1tb?
What does 5400 RPM HDD mean?
What power supply should i get?
and its a 1080 TI

- An H7 would perform identically for cheaper and has zero ram interference. If you can spend a bit extra go for Cryorig H5 Ultimate. But that depends on your overclocks, if you're willing to just apply a moderate overclock then the H7 will be enough, if higher then H5 Ultimate will be a good choice.
- I am talking about RAM speeds, stupid to spend so high on the rest but not on the RAM.
- Yes, for games 1 TB is enough and you'll get extra for an SSD, but you need to go with at least a 240 GB if you wanna store a few games.
- RPM means revolutions per minute, more simple it is pretty much the speed of the HDD and higher is better in this case. 7200 RPM is around 33% faster than 5400 RPM.
- SeaSonic SSRM 550w if you can, Seasonic Sii12 520w if lower budget.
- That's what I said.
 


OK thx, what ram do you recomend, im looking for 16gb and very fast. here is my build... do i need anything else like fans or cooling or is this the complete build?
