Might be best to post this here...
Quick question....about to upgrade my system to i5 2500k which i intend to overclock to about 4.5gz.
Have bought the xigmatek elysium case.
Getting Asrock z68 extreme4 gen 3 mobo and gskill ripjaws ram 8gb
Would like some decent cooling for just the CPU at this stage. GPU will be GTX580 gainward phantom 3mb.
Plan is to eventually do a proper custom loop - but not sure when will get round to this so want something decent to get the system up and running.
Choices probably are either a high end air or the corsair H100 - would just go air, but the large beasts seem to struggle with that RAM.
Any suggestions of the best compromise?
Also any keyboard recommendations - good for typing and gaming. Not overly keen on a massive gaming kb with loads of buttons i wouldn't use! Want back lighting.
Many thanks
Nic
