Posted in here earlier, looking for more advice on choosing parts for a gaming pc.

Opted for a stronger 240mm cooling unit with an added cryorig h7 to keep it chilly. Also chose a full tower to house it all.

If I need to buy additional parts for putting it together feel free to let me know!!

Thanks!!

God damn, that's a lot of money, and a lot of power, I hardly have anything to say about it since i'm more into budget builds.

I guess a Mouse? do you have one?

Also, i know the Corsair RMi are top of the line, i do not know about RMX, but i am guessing they're also tier 1 units

It's a nice build.

You can't use a corsair aio & a cryorig h7 together , its one or the other.

Yeah I've decided it's time to upgrade from my laptop which I've had for about 3 years. I do have a mouse though!!

Do the two cooling units not integrate or something?

What do you mean integrate? Both go on top of the CPU, each with their own heatsink,it'd be awkward looking I guess, if you even can manage it

Oh I see now. Lol

Would I be better off getting a regular 140mm fan to make it colder?

 

[envy14tpe]

Full towers are enormous and not needed for most builds, like yours. It's one GPU and 2 drives, so get mid tower. Also, you could get a 1070 or 1070ti, since it is 1080p 144Hz and not 1440p.

Last I'd get a 500gb SSD. The prices are so much more reasonable now. And you'll never need to decide where to put programs or games, as they should all fit in 500gb.

 

[madmatt30]

I agree with the 1070ti to be honest.

The case ?? I canr argue against the enthoo pro full tower if you want an optical drive & a 240 rad setup

A lot of mid towers have restrictions on what will fit on top fan mounts with an optical drive installed.
