JRock, are you gonna lay down some sick beats for us? I've been waiting for you at the trailer park!

Alright, that's a better/cheaper solution than I was thinking of lol. Thanks for that video, I might actually get some use out of an old laptop with that.
 
Learned something new today

Agreed with a custom fan curve. You'll probably never need your fan(s) running at 100%, so why run them that high? That said, the only harm done is to your ears and maybe your fans burn out faster

Push/Pull will result in a very minimal change in temps, unless you have a super thick radiator. So to answer your question as to whether it's worth it, I would say no.
 
To add to this, I wouldn't get slim fans when you have normal sized ones that work okay. They might be noisier, more expensive, move less air, etc.

Reboot modem/router if you haven't already

The price difference seems kind of silly, being that the better one has a worse screen (but better ssd, I guess). 300 is not worth 128gb extra ssd storage, especially given the screen tradeoff

i7 and 1050ti for sure. You'll be more future proofed that way. Also, GTA V and Witcher 3 are both really demanding games, so the more horsepower the better.

i couldn't care less about thumbnails.

Seriously? This is an issue for someone? The little pictures on a youtube video? come on guys.... there is way more important stuff in life :-)
