Hi guys, I've recently completed a new PC build based on the Ryzen 1700 processor. Parts include:
Ryzen R7 1700
Corsair H100i v2
ASUS ROG X370-F
16GB G SKILL Trident Z @ 3200MHz
250GB Samsung Pro 960
500GB Samsung Evo 850
120GB OCZ Agility 3
Seagate 1TB HDD
EVGA GTX 1080 Hybrid FTW
Corsair RM650X
Fractal Design Meshify C

So with those parts listed I have moved both stock GP12 fans to the front of the case as intake and have mounted the Corsair H100i v2 on the roof with the EVGA Hybrid on the rear. OS is installed on the M.2 drive which is cooled with EKWB heatsink.

I've got the RAM running at 3200MHz now after previously struggling to get it to post.

I'm not sure about overclocking. I've tinkered with Ryzen Master and set clocks to 3.9GHz and voltage to 1.35. I just did an hour on RealBench for now as it was on the old HDD and my temps did not pass 61°C.

Does this sound correct and would I be able to now set that in the BIOS and leave it 24/7??

Also with all the fans I find it a little louder, obviously,than my previous system. Could anyone recommend any better 140mm fans for the intakes and 120mm fans for the radiators that would run quieter than what came with the parts?

Cream coloured Noctua are not an option.
 
I just can't get a single overclock to stick in the BIOS. As soon as I try to change the FID multiplier to anything at all it won't post. It just sits there with a black screen and I have to power down and back up again
