nobelharvardsLiquid cooling for a locked processor and non Z type chipset?
Even if you are going for a quiet build, with a chipset not supporting overclocking, and a locked processor, you should not go past mid tier air cooling. Anything past that for non overclockers is questionable spending.
Also, single radiator water cooling is less effective than high end air cooling.
750W is the sort of power supply you would buy for SLI or Crossfire. I am guessing you are planning to expand later?
of course, im gonna keep this pc and upgrade it later on in life.
yttriumit's a little imbalanced
not sure on case quality, CPU cooler is both awful and overkill since you won't be overclocking, motherboard is a little low end, PSU is great but overkill.
CPU, SSD, and RAM are all fine, I'd just tweak the things listed above. I'd ditch the CPU cooler and opt for a slightly higher end motherboard like this one, and I'd do some serious research into cases and case quality, rather than just picking what looks cool.
for PSU I'd either go with this which is a really solid but modest power supply, or this if you want fully modular
of course at $1000 I would seriously consider overclocking, it's incredibly easy nowadays
thanks, the case has 3 fans and this is my first time building a pc, case recommendations?
Tino_IMO drop the liquid cooling and SSD for now and just get a 1tb drive and a decent fan, gives you way more space and it also saves you some $ and upgrading at a later time is easy
yeah i was thinking of dropping liquid cooling its a bit of a overkill. and i dont really need 1tb, maybe 500 gb but not 1tb. thanks though :)
