what do you think guys, good to go??
don't need gpu.

don't need gpu.
change the case for a corsair 600t and save a few quid there imo...but I'm biased
do you really need 8 gig RAM?
Unless you have 2 Graphics cards which eat power you can easily get a less powerful PSU and save some ££. Swap the HDD to a Samsung F3 1Tb (HD103SJ)
There is no point using the SATA 6GPS port for a mechanical drive atm.
Rest looks nice. Mildly jealous
Its probably one of the quietest drives I've owned. I use it with a OCZ Vertex 60Gb like you have in your list. In a HAF 922 you can barely hear it! My brother has one in a Coolermaster RC-1000 and you literally can't hear it!
Just make sure you put up pics of the build![]()
The Advanced Dominator II would also be worth looking at for W.C'ing
Only thing i'd mention with the Cosmos is the cable routing is a bit shoddy with it.
It has the same issue as the RC-1000, the upper hole where you route the 4/8 pin cpu connector can't be used. It interferes with the side pannels locking system.
no no don't worry any constructive criticism is more than welcome xDHate to put the cat among the pigeons, but you might want to check if there is enough room between the top of the cpu cooler & the side panel on the Cosmos.
I had a cosmos for a few months with a Coolermaster V8 fitted & I had to remove the large side fan, because the fan was clashing with the top of the cpu cooler.
hope this helps.
Cheers
I think it will be tight, I am sure coolermaster give the max height of cpu cooler that will fit in the case & not clash with the fan on their website.
Glad to be of service![]()
I would go for a ThermalTake Frio Cooler. It's slightly cheaper and better, according to the bit-tech review:
