I'm looking to build a relatively high end gaming rig to last me for quite a while. The parts itself will all be bought within Australia, so the cost of this build will be relatively high.
The problem with the parts that I chose would be that I'm concerned whether they'll fit altogether. Especially the AIO cooler being EK Predator 240, which I fear might have either clearance problems with the ram or maybe the motherboard itself. Would changing the fans to Noctua make the AIO slightly quieter?
Probably further down the track I might consider buying some LED strips to give it some colour to show off the interior.
