Games mostly bf1, GTA5 @ 4K, other Games and VR-intense things.

I want High Settings @ 4K .
VR Ready.
And Ultra @ 1080p.
Noise level down to as much as possible, I HATE NOISY PCs!

A lot of people advised AIRCOOLING and I'll go with that but I want to use watercooling in the future so maybe the components (gpu) should be watercoolable?

you need to post the link with random numbers and letters. under the Current Part List there is a permalink box. the link in that box is the one to post

 

[Chugalug_]

It's called the permalink; it can be found in the corner.
@OP, pretty much unless you're going SLI, a good air cooler will perform very similarly to water cooling for a much lower cost allowing for other improvements.

 

[LiquidAirCooling]

Okay updated the link.

I'm not going SLI, I never really worked with water cooling so its a whole new expierence for me and tbh it looks just too gorgeous so I'd go with watercooling.

Edit : why amd ryzen? I mean intels I7 7700k got 4.2GHz normal and almost 5GHz at Turbo!
Ryzen can archive only almost 4GHz in Turbo so why Ryzen?

the exact same reason you want an i7 over an i3 or an i5 more threads/cores, Ryzen has almost the same gaming performance with the benefit of many cores/threads. the difference now is that the ryzen cores are almost as good as intel cores for less money (something that has not been true for years). overclocking is part of the package not an expensive option.

Watercoolers can be louder than standard fan air coolers.

For gaming an i7 7700k will do you much better than Ryzen, even in VR.
@HH, the 4k monitor can be improved, there's a good IPS LG 27" 4k monitor going for 339 right now, and i'd go for a 960 Evo/2TB HDD and EVGA card in this range.
My recommendation.
Costs less, runs much quieter and has a minimalist noise dampening case.

[LiquidAirCooling]

Both of you swap the case ouf! The case design is very important! Side panel window is a must. The more the better.

 

[Chugalug_]

Soz, easily fixed.
If you want, crack out for the S340 Elite.

What kind of case design are you into?

The masterbox is a super nice case for super cheap but case is your choice as long as it fits the components.

 

[Chugalug_]

It's a 2k budget, cheap cases should be out of the question! 😛
Aluminium or high quality build is a must.

 

[-HH-]

If it were my PC I would personally choose something way more expensive, personally im a big fan of this:

[Chugalug_]

Meh, overpriced for what it offers. 😛
A better alternative is the S340 Elite, P400S Tempered Glass, or 460X (Hard to work in) for looks.

 

[-HH-]

Cases don't really impact performance though it's more aesthetics.

Aslong as it fits the components and you're comfortable building inside it then it's fine.

 

[LiquidAirCooling]

I like how chugalug continues the discussion of the case thanks man.
I love windows (not the OS) and glass, the more the better but not one of the completely glass cases. @HH Your case is good but overpriced.

This one is my favorite right now:

[-HH-]

As cool as that case is, there is some practicalities that aren't quite there, for example the top.

I have a couple of suggestions though so fear not!

[LiquidAirCooling]

wow @HH !!These Cases are stunning! The downside is the price but the corsair one is cheaper.
Good Job, can you check if they are compatible with my build and maybe watercooling?

[-HH-]

are you looking at possibly doing a custom loop in the future or just an AIO on the CPU/GPU?

 

[LiquidAirCooling]

I'm sorry to ask but what's the real difference between custom loop and All in One (AiO)?
The noise should be as low as possible and the easier method is better.

I'm sure custom fits into my Build because I'm probally gonna buy Hard Tubings.

I know Air cooling is quiter and well cooler but I really want to get into watercooling and use that for the future.

Custom loop as the name implies you buy each part and make it custom. AIO - All in One units are pre-sealed and filled and basically just need to be mounted.
the AIO units being sealed are a hands off affair, the custom loop may require maintenance.

 

[-HH-]

pretty much as R_1 said,

only thing to note is custom loops take ALOT more work to complete and often void warranty on components such as GPU/CPUs.
EK/Swiftech are the pioneers of liquid cooling, you can also find EK and swiftech kits, the Predator(EK) and X-series(swiftech) which are a step up from AIO coolers.

Generally full water cooling loops will work better than an AIO but do require maintenance, just so pipes don't clog or liquid becomes all nasty and corrodes your bits.

Personally my rig uses a silverstone TD-02E but it sounds like a jet engine. (it's an AIO).

I'd suggest looking at NZXT X-62 or the Corsair H100i if you're thinking of an AIO.

But really all you need is a decent air cooler such as the Noctua NH-D15 or the Dark rock pro 3.

it's all about how you think your PC looks good too. For example not many people use the Noctua because of the beige color scheme.

Also custom loops are alot more expensive.

 

[LiquidAirCooling]

AIO is my choice. EKs configurator is awesome, but 400$ is waaay too much.

 

[-HH-]

Yeah and thats kinda cheap!

totally look at the X-62 and the Corsair H100i!

 

[Chugalug_]

The Kraken x62 and H100i relative to water cooling are pretty mid range.
An AIO is a terrible value option unless going top end, like 7700k 2x 1080 Ti 500GB SSD style.

 

[-HH-]

Not really chug, I didn't know liquid cooling your CPU makes your 500GB SSD faster.

It depends on what you want from a PC.

As above our parts lists have suggested high end air coolers which are more than often quieter than AIO coolers and don't really sacrifice performance.

The main difference between liquid and air cooling is where the heat is dispersed. Theory behind it is if you have an AIO which disperses heat out the top of your case then the GPU has more room to breathe hence you can OC it a little bit more.

It's also all about looks.

AIO's are generally louder due to pump operation.
