New build, new builder, opinions please

[tamzzy]

I would prefer one that shows the CPU temperature, would you have any recommendations?

I recommend that you don't bother
A "normal" aio is sufficient

 

[Cheekytrucker]

Cheers, I'll go for an aio with the best reviews then.

Arctic freezer 3 for worth a look also and comes with 6yrs warranty. did find the deepcool with a lcd display..comes with 5yrs warranty also though haven''t checked reviews on the display etc, but seeing as a standard aircooler for £30 will cool a 7800x3d, any 360mm will prob be overkill...put non rgb and rbg version of the freezer in, as you said you weren't bothered by the lights

• 1 x Arctic Liquid Freezer III ARGB High Performance CPU Water Cooler - 360mm (SKU: COO-ARC-01992) = £89.99
• 1 x Arctic Liquid Freezer III High Performance CPU Water Cooler - 360mm (SKU: COO-ARC-01991) = £76.99
• 1 x DeepCool Mystique LCD 360 All In One CPU Cooler - 360mm (SKU: COO-DEC-01827) = £159.95

Total: £330.92 (includes delivery: £3.99)​

review if you go that way

 

[Cheekytrucker]

I think one of the artic liquids will probably do the job for me.
Many thanks

You don't really need a AIO for the 7800X3d as a £32 Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120SE is more than good enough for it.

Arctic won't fit in the phanteks case I specced (which is why I didn't suggest it)

 

[Craig_d1]

Arctic won't fit in the phanteks case I specced (which is why I didn't suggest it)

I take itit's the thickness then? Pangoly had it compatible and the phanteks spec page had only a 360mm being able to go in top, and didn't specifiy max thickness. Can't believe a new case still gets designed not to cater for thicker rads still

@Craig_d1 yeah by 3mm lol

Also I quite like the look of this case.

What do you think, suitable and would the artic cooler fit it.
Cheers

Looks like the 750w comes with aPCIe 5.0 Cable (12VHPWR) for the new Nvidia GPUs.

The 850w comes with just the standard cables.

Going by this post on reddit the 360mm AF3 should fit (280mm may have problems).

Also take note of the radiator screws as mentioned.

Solve this problem allowing me to use the larger psu.

1st psu is an atx3.0 version...2nd is older version so not atx3.0 compliant.

added some atx3.0 compliant psu's below. 1st only has a 7yrs warranty but still a tier and will have a cable like above that can connect to latest nvidia card(neither corsair has a native socket on their psu's...they gone with not using them, but still making their psu's atx3.0 compliant and putting in a conversion cable) the rm850x shift is corsair top tier psu with 10yrs warranty, though psu designed slightly differently is that the connections are on the side so for a regular case you can attach/detach cables easily, you just need to make sure there's room in case to do this.
3rd is the same seasonic gx850 that you listed above, but this is the atx3.0 version
Both the msi psu's are good and come with 10yrs warranty, and on offer, though the 850 one is on preorder now, so you'd have to wait a bit

• 1 x Corsair RMe Series RM850e Fully Modular Low-Noise ATX Power Supply v2 (CP-9020263-UK) (SKU: CA-27N-CS) = £100.00
• 1 x MSI MPG A850G PCIE5 UK PSU 850W 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply (SKU: CA-00Y-MS) = £98.98
• 1 x Seasonic Focus GX-850 ATX3.0 850W 80 Gold Modular Power Supply (SKU: CA-08M-SS) = £140.00
• 1 x Corsair RM850x Shift ATX 3.0 80 Plus Gold Power Supply (CP-9020252-UK) (SKU: CA-279-CS) = £129.99
• 1 x MSI MPG A1000G PCIE5 UK PSU 1000W 80 Plus Gold Power Supply (SKU: CA-00W-MS) = £139.99

Total: £616.96 (includes delivery: £7.99)​

I think I'll go for the 1000W msi, gives plenty of allowance.

There's not much point buying a cable for a pre-ATX 3.0/PCIE5 PSU because with the +£15, you might as well just get the PSU that has native support.
