​

it's main use is gaming and general usage, occasionally f&h when not gaming

being disabled I can't maintain the custom loop, otherwise I would, so get arctic freezer II 360 instead of the d15s

 

[PAULRYAN52]

Thanks so make the following changes

1. Auros Elite
2. pcie v3 ssd
3. 32gb ram

I won't be buying until the next generation gpu and cpu are out, ocuk will be building it so get a 3 year warranty,

[PAULRYAN52]

i thought 3600mhz was best for ryzen

 

[PAULRYAN52]

great so it's practically as good as the 8pack but double the capacity for £20 more

 

[PAULRYAN52]

thank you

 

[PAULRYAN52]

what's your ambient room temp

 

[PAULRYAN52]

I'm seriously in 2 minds whether to get the d15s for longevity or the aio for lower temps

 

[PAULRYAN52]

would the ram in my list fit under the d15 with 2 fans

 

[PAULRYAN52]

The D15s, yes, no problem. I have two fans on mine.

I thought the d15s only come with 1 fan, I would like to know whether the d15 (2 fan version) would fit

 

[PAULRYAN52]

the ram is 44mm high

 

[PAULRYAN52]

is the crucial ballistics sport lt equal to the patriot viper performance wise

 

[PAULRYAN52]

for me it's between them 2 but don't know which 1 is best, if I get the crucial I can get the d15, if I get the patriot i would need the d15s

 

[PAULRYAN52]

would having the fan higher affect temps

 

[PAULRYAN52]

thanks

 

[PAULRYAN52]

I have enough plus spare cash for the spec, what do you mean by gen 3 ram

 

[PAULRYAN52]

that's why I thought get the 3900x for future proofing and the 2080ti is just a place holder until next gen gpus are available

 

[PAULRYAN52]

the way I look at it is that the 3900x is within my budget so why not get the best I can within my budget which is the 3900x, infact if I wanted I can afford the 3950x but don't want to
