Spec Check Please

Here is a spec I am going to get. It will all be going in an Antec 300 I already own. Any problems you guys can see. Oh, this is also my first build so if I have made a really amateur mistake please don't shout

Thanks for looking

Are you going to overclock? Cause if so the stock fan probably won't be good enough to keep it cool.

I suggest you get a Arctic Freezer Pro 7 rev2 to keep the CPU cool and only £20.
Or get the Titan TTC-NK85TZ Fenrir for £30

I am really limited on money at the moment so in June I will look at getting a decent cooler. Probably the Corsair H50.

there are just as good air coolers out there

Thanks. I am thinking of going air cooling as one of my friends has put me off the corsair H50

I've just brought a H50

your worryin me

Dont worry about the H50, its a quality piece of kit. It keeps my oc Q9550 nice and cool. Easy to fit and looks ace.

Ok, thanks for the info. Just out of interest, what direction is your airflow now?

ChrisLandin · 30 Dec 2009 at 23:45

I use the H50 as an intake. In fact all the fans on my case now suck air into the case apart from the large fan on the top of the case which acts as my exhaust. It works a treat.
