OP will kick themselves if they grab EKWB with Corsair gear to see Corsair water Kit being launched very soon .....
Their radiators will be prob one of the best on the market ... Though still matching ekwb/Corsair pricing haha !

And OP, don't need to cool Aorus 7 VRM with water.. proper heatsink does the job just fine ...

it's not just that...you're spending nearly £1000 just on watercooling parts!
not to mention a top spec mobo when a midrange one would do just fine, an overpriced psu, a 2070 that if you added £120 could get you a 2080 instead, expensive rgb bling bling ram, and a massive case that's way overkill.

watercooling should be regarded as icing on the cake of a top end rig. not instead of a top end rig.
as it stands, the whole build is like having a ferarri body on a dacia transmission and engine.

Appreciate this, I am here for posts such as this and the help and guidance of all.

I need a case that i can Invert which is the only reason i am getting rid of my 800D.

I have always put my rigs under water for noise more than anything, i work a lot from home and use my PC for this so i need an all rounder.

However i also like the project aspect of a build which is where the bling comes in i guess.

Granted i dont need it but i "want" it.

500D SE would provide some discount, as you get a commander pro (controls up to 6 fans lighting, 4 rgb strips, and 6 fan speed control) included and 3 LL120 RGB fans.

Also as most of your lighting is Corsair, you could get some Corsair RAM and complete the ICUE lighting experience.

We offer Vengeance Pro RGB, but also the new Dominator Platinum RGB with Capillex LED's, they are BRIGHT:

Vengeance Pro RGB: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/cors...00c16-3200mhz-dual-channel-kit-my-4bh-cs.html
Dominator Platinum RGB: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/cors...-dual-channel-kit-cmt16gx4m2c3-my-4bn-cs.html

Thank you for this, i was going to get the Crosair RAM but i wasnt able to find a source to confirm the chips are B-Die, can you confirm on this please?

I am happy to send my G-Skill back and swap for Dom (if i can do this?)

Perhaps https://www.overclockers.co.uk/cors...-dual-channel-kit-cmt16gx4m2c3-my-4bp-cs.html which is the same price as the G-Skill and in stock too.

Will the 2700X and Crosshair 7 play niceley? and is it B-Die?
