Hi Peeps.
I have always used pre built systems in the past and think its time i have a go myself, gives me a project to work on outside of work as well.
the Goal i am trying to go for is a Black/Red system that would hopefully have 4/5 years on it.
Currently i am looking towards,
CPU- Intel Core i7-4790K 4.00GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail
MOBO- Asus Maximus VII Hero Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard
COOLER- Corsair H100i High Performance Water Cooler
SSD- Samsung 840 Evo Series 120GB Solid State Drive
PSU- Corsair RM Series 850W 80+ Gold PSU
HDD- Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s Hard Drive
GPU- Asus GeForce GTX 970 DirectCU II OC Strix 4096MB GDDR5
MEM- Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit
CASE- NZXT H440 Mid Tower Case - Black/Red.
For the H100i rad i will be using x2 PWM quiet edition SP120's and x1 AF140 for the rear exhaust.
My main questions are,
1: Is there any point getting 2133Mhz over 1866 memory?
2: This case runs warm, but would i experience issues with this cooling setup? x1 140mm rear exhaust x2 120mm top exhaust(on rad) x3 120mm front intake
3: Would putting a 3rd 120mm fan in the top just over the 3 intake fans at the front help ?
Any help or suggestions really appreciated, as this is my first attempt
