I5 7600k with GTX 1070 Cooling

[jbthazard]

Building my first PC, going for the i5 7600k and gigabyte gtx 1070. Was wondering if this case with its built in fans and ventilation makeup would be enough to keep my build cool. Not planning on doing much overclocking. Will be almost exclusively used as a gaming pc.

sure its a fine case but depends on your CPU heatsink more than the case. You will want atleast a cryorig H7 or higher.

Should I opt for the cryorig H7 and a cheaper case?

Yup because the 7600k doesn't come with a stock cooler. You would need atleast the cryorig M9i $20 to keep the 7600k cool.
