Not much, but I just dont like the horror stories I have seen from Triton users (cracking/leaking etc).

At least when the H110I GT had an issue (first batch received freezing temperatures during transport) Corsair recalled them/stopped sale of them all.

I have to put off ordering my parts till the 24th now :(, I got the date wrong for payday like a simpleton haha. A friend has been telling me just to buy 2 980ti's and a good monitor and keep the rest of my current rig, What do you think of that idea Stulid?
Using a 2600k and z68 is just feeling too old for me.
 
Well I was gonna go for 4k, but with only 60 hertz models out currently I am gonna give that a miss and the Rog Swift is in my basket. I'm sure deals will change by my order date so will ask again on the day and see what you think is best going by the offers Stulid :) Have my mind set on the full build so looking forward to getting it all ordered.
How far off are the 4k 120/144 hertz screens?
 
Started getting my bits together, ordered these below. The cooler i wanted was out of stock so picked up an older H100i off amazon, i hope that cooler is alright? The cable extensions i wanted had some out of stock too, so will get them when they are back. The PSU below is to be used on my old pc, my older HX850 will be used on my new pc.

Overkill CPU as you're not even going full watercooling and tbh you just game.

That PSU is cheap and nasty, it amazes me people who cheap out on quite literally the most important component in a rig. Spend more on a Superflower Platinum or the likes.

You dont know what I paid for the cpu, believe me for the price its not :) The psu is a replacement for my old pc. Im using my old one on new. The psu im using is my older HX850 v2 which is plenty.

Cool, goodluck :)


You've got the 'I need to buy the best bug', I get that, but at least gain something from doing it.

I'd still be swapping out the PSU if it was me, as the PSU is a fundamental and most important part to any build.

You should be going full loop with that CPU, as it's an enthusiast chip. It's crazy to only be using a AIO.

My other point(s) still stand.

How much did you pay for the CPU?

Can't talk about prices from other places, sorry mate :)
 
Alarm bells should be ringing? no. I got a cracking deal off someone I know thats all. Once it's built post some pics, need to find some extension cables now. Just spoke to a few people and they say my HX850 will be enough for the build :)

You could have bought the EVGA P2 850W for £124 and used it in your new rig, and keep the HX for your other pc.

The one im getting will be plenty for my old rig, the overclock will be turned off and it will just be used for the internet for the mrs. I prefare corsair PSU's also, their customer service is fantastic. Looking forward to getting it all together now :) thanks for the help and advice along the way Lee.
