Question Rate my System

[SpyroBot]

Eyo! Would appreciate if someone would check out my new system to fix/make something better.

Thanks in advance!

Seems fine.

Hard to rate it without a goal in mind. I assume gaming? If so, maybe 8/10.

I would probably opt for larger storage drives, cost increase should be minimal. Games are getting huge and no reason not to pick up a 2TB drive over a 1TB or a 512GB SSD vs 250GB.

Plenty of hardware for overclocking. Though the expense of the cooler is a bit much for my tastes. For that price I would look at some of the expandable loops available.

There are better chassis out there for cooling as well. GPU might get a little warm inside that box.

Could you possibly link a better chassis?

Well, if you like NZXT you will probably like Phanteks or Fractal Design.

Very similar but it has much larger grills for the front fans to have an intake.

And plenty of cases designed for airflow over aesthetics.

Not seen any reviews on this one, but if you were after silence and that all black look on the outside: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/6DyV3C/be-quiet-silent-base-601-black-atx-mid-tower-case-bg026


That is just for starters, many brands and options out there in roughly that price range.

That Lian-LI is pretty neat. I'm not big on RGB but that is pretty understated.
