the 250 m2 was for windows and the 1tb ssd for application/games or does this not matter i should just install everything on one drive?

yeah i suppose i dont need a dvd drive anymore ive never really built a computer without a dvd drive incase older software that can only be accessible via cd's

yeah i'll re check those ssd drives for better prices thanks

i've also actually decided not to go for the corsair hydro series water pump but rather a traditional air cooler.
Which cooler would suffice especially if i decide to do some overclocking for cpu?

thanks

 

[windheaven]

whats the likelyhood of the water cooler pipes bursting or in general breaking down vs a traditional air cooler

 

[windheaven]

if teh pipes burst and water leaked out would how badly would the components get damaged, potentially?

n someone please do a final check on these and tell me what they think for 1440p gaming

should i wait till black friday or buy it now
quote from another post
"That £100 more in 3700X is certainly lot more useful than £100 more in more expensive mobo.
Any properly done X570 board has good enough VRM for coming 16 core 3950X.
Including cheapest of Asus, Prime X570-P and Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite.
(after some scam level VRMs in their B450/X470 AM4 boards)"

whats this about vrm and scam???

Looks good to me only thing is I might be tempted by the other 2070s instead bit extra.
