  1. For the top fans, are they 140mm or 120mm? How many extra fans do I need to buy for the top? Also, how many extra fans do I need to buy in total? Thanks so much!
  2. Hey everyone, I'm building a new computer and considering using the Enthoo Luxe case. How many extra fans (and which fans) do I need to get for the best air flow? Quietness of air flow is my priority.

  3. 1. How about Cryorig's R1 Ultimate? http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/cryorig-cpu-cooler-crr1a 2. I heard that the 390 eats a lot of power. Is that true? I'd like to avoid as much power consumption as possible. 3. EVGA Supernova 1000? http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-220p21000xr 4. I've always wanted to try using a sound card, and this seemed like a cheap opportunity. Are there any other cards you would suggest?
  4. Where Will I be Building it? I will be building this computer in Australia, and buying the parts there. Build Use I intend to use this build for multimedia (music, movies); productivity (office use, spreadsheets, document reading etc.); and gaming (e.g. GTA V, Dragon Age Inquisition) with stable fps on medium-high settings. My needs are listed in order of importance Budget My budget is around AUD$2000, give or take AUD$100. If you can help me cut down costs even more, that would be awesome too. Monitors I would also like to run a dual-monitor setup. If someone could suggest to be good widescreen monitors with thin bezels that are good value for money, please suggest the below. They DO NOT have to be included in my budget.

Aim I plan to use this PC for work productivity, such as spreadsheets, web browsing and general office use I will occasionally use it for gaming (e.g. GTA V, Dragon Age Inquisition), ultra-high graphics are NOT important to me 3.

Peripherals and Preferred Hardware I will need a copy of Windows 10 for my new PC I would also like to have an SSD for a faster boot time I would also like to use Cooler Master's HAF X case I would also like to use Creative labs GIgaWorks T40 Series II Speakers If you could suggest a decent sound card that would be nice also - I mainly listen to music in mid-range and movies (vocals) 5. Why am I upgrading? I would like to build a new PC haha 6. Other Notes The budget includes the monitors Cooling is very important to me, which is why I chose the HAF X case Thanks so much, any recommendations are appreciated!
