New Potential Build - Looking for any Input
Zalman cooler is just a straight fan cooler, no liquid cooling. The 4TB's are indeed Reds. 2 of the 4 are going to be converted to externals from what he has told me.....he bought chassis for them....idk. But yeah, I completely agree with you, unfrotuantely it is a lose/lose for me. I can't convince him to buy new/different parts at this point, and I also can't justify the problems that are to come due to him buying the parts. I have been drafted for career suicide.
Asus recommends liquid cpu coolers on X79, especially if more than low overclocking is done. Their reasoning is that air coolers tend to prevent proper cooling of the heavier duty power distribution components of X79 along the top of the motherboard. You may well find that you have to also cool the back of that section of the motherboard.
