Next Upgrade :) SSD + Good cooler for CPU

[Xmedicated]

so i just upgrade my PSU AND GPU GTX 970 its a beast

Now i wanna get a really good cooler for my CPU so i can OC it, i dont mind spending more for a Water cooler if you think its worth it, since im doing little upgrades so i can save for a new rig

Gigabyte H61-DS2 DVI Mboard
i7 3770k 3.4GHz
12GB DDR 1600
2TB Sata HDD

also have a decent size SSD, fast as pos basically im a hardcore gamer i like fast loading times 😀

250g min size since games are huge these days

Alright what you want is an h100i liquid closed loop 240mm cooler. It takes up two fan spaces on your chassis.
The other option is a NH-D14 Air cooler, its just as good, but not the prettiest thing in the universe. Either way, both will give you outrageous OC´s.

For the SSD, there is no other choice besides the Samsung 840 EVO 256GB. This is by far the best you can buy, it consistently out performs everything else in its price class.

You'll need a different mobo to overclock, one with a Z77 chipset.

Fair enough 😉

Samsung's 840 Evo series is always a solid choice. Crucial's MX100 is great value.
