So after project K is gone, now planning to do a K2
Hope I can get some help/recommendations/ideas here
Approx parts but recommendations welcome (Gaming PC max budget £1,2k max):
i5 4690K
Z97 Mobo
16 GB Ram
500 SSD
GTX970
750W PSU
Case?
Questions:
Can I cool these with something like this:
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-040-TL&groupid=962&catid=1532
Or is it better with a 1x 240 + 1x360 rads?
Also, from the cases in the market right now what would you recommend? for under £100? I am worried that I got so used to the TJ07 that now everything looks small and way too compact for my skills but I am willing to take a risk.
Some options: NZXT H440, Phantek or Fractal (multiple options there), but almost all cases I looked at tend to not have any direct holes/exhaust so I am worried about hot air exit from the case.
Is EK pump/res combo a good one or xspc? I want silent of course
Ideally I want to keep it as compact as possible and low budget, so 1x480 rad as it means less hassle/less fittings and angles to worry about and less fans, ultimately less noise/cost!
