It did come with paste but i cleaned it off and used the AS5.. Used it for donkeys years with no issues. Pea size ftw ;)

When i finally got the right controller, i installed it and the six fans came on with full rgb mentalness before i could get the software sorted. It was like one of those houses at Christmas that always go over the top with Christmas lights. Crazy.

Few days of testing and running some games. Stable with the Corsair at full speed. No overclocks yet, may try later for gits and shiggles. OCD regarding bottom fans being upside down is also stable but may get some reverse further down the line.

49... Currently playing Hell Divers 2 a bit. Against the storm and about to start Cyberpunk again (New rig) Looking forward to Frostpunk 2 and Crime Scene cleaner :D

Ram is fine and dandy for those that may be interested. Booted at 4800 but it pushed to 6k with no issues. Not tried pushing it any further as build is technically not finished due to ordering the wrong Lian Li fan controller ¬_¬ Tomorrow.....

Yeah that's the one i ordered... the corsair :D I have no issue with tweaking but may just swap it out if there are too many issues.... Couple of hours before it all hits the doormat... wish me luck

It is supposed to come with an anti sag bracket... We shall see tomorrow morning o_O

Yeah i had to go with a couple of things i didn't ideally want. Really wanted a 420 Galahad cooler also. I will be passing stuff to my Dads build eventually so will be able to go full custom water loop at some point and he can have the cooler and ram if need be. You've got me worried about the...

Appreciate all the responses guys. All very sensible too. Thanks. Regarding the GFX card, I know i could save some money but i could save a lot of money on the whole build if i wasn't going for aesthetics (This is unusual for me as i don't normally care about it) The Zotac mentioned...

Hey all, Been a while so this is a slightly more nervous build.... mainly because of the doubt around the 12VHPWR fear of melting... If anyone can see any glaring errors I've made, I'd appreciate it if you let me know. One of the main reasons for posting is that hopefully somebody has some...

Yeah i figured 16 would probably be my next purchase, cheers mate.

Good to hear, thanks TheGez. Res will be 1080p @ 120hz until I can get a new monitor.

Hey guys, I'm due an upgrade but can't afford to do the whole lot at the moment, however. I've got hold of an Asus Rog Strix 1070ti Current spec: i7 3770k @ 4.8 8gb Ram GTX670 Will the CPU and or RAM gimp the 1070 too much, if you know what I mean? I'm thinking I may need to up the ram a...

Hey guys, My friend is looking at moving across to PC to play WoW as his Mac is now old and decrepit. He has about £500 budget and has a monitor sorted already but will need everything else including Windows. Any help appreciated.

Perfect! Thanks Nkata

Thanks again for all your help. Budget has been raised to £600 Any significant changes to be made with that? I'm guessing we could squeeze an i5 in there? Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks all for your reponses. Nkata, both options look good, thanks. I'll be tempted by the Intel option I think. sastusbulbas, I'll let him keep some of his pride and just say he's around the 80 mark. He's been using computers as long as me and can't do without one. His music is his life...

mickeyflinn, There is no budget at the moment as he wants a rough price from me but I dare say that 4 to 500 is fine. Danny75, That's looking pretty good mate thanks. I've had a look through the cases and I have no idea what's going on as there really isn't a lot of choice it seems...

Hey guys, It's been a while and I'm right out of the game at the moment. My Dad wants me to build him a new PC. He's after something that will be fast, responsive and mainly used for listening to music, youtube etc. Bit of office type work Plenty of space for photos and a bit of ram...

Thanks for the advice guys! Can't believe I got out of this without being tempted with an unnecessary upgrade :D
