I ended up with the Corsair 200R, I still have the cooling expandability of the gods, still have a similar interior layout, and I still have front bays I can use for stuff like disc drives, etc. And I still reverted to a 1060. R.I.P. ME

Hmm. I see your point. I use open back headphones, and I can hear everything around me, including my computer's fans.

The case already has 3 fans, and has 5 open slots for more fans. I was wanting to use a few on the mobo and a few on the controller, so at least I can reduce sounds.

Family is a BIG problem. Last thing I want is a turbojet engine in my room.

Rosewill...? Never heard of that brand. I should have mentioned that I wanted parts from brands that are... well, time tested.

I noticed that for the same product, I could find cheaper things on Outlet. Not to mention the whole video card price being blown way out of proportion. (on amazon

Bottlenecking? I prefer the term "Not optimized."

So, I have an $800-$900 price cap, and while assuring myself several times the parts I picked were under budget, I went through with my trusty windows calculator and I was devastated of an OBSCENE price of (roughly) $1218, without even factoring in the fans, dust covers, thermal comp, fan controllers, etc. I need to find ways to reduce my cost. Please note that I only want to use parts available on OutletPC. I will be very reluctant to combine sources. Required to run the computer: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 2x8 DDR4 ~ 72.89 Thermaltake TR-600 TR2 ATX12V 600 Watt Desktop Power Supply ~ 54.89 Corsair Carbide 400R ~ 109.88 Intel i5-6500 & MSI Z170A PC Mate Combo ~ 329.89 (Core i5 range.) EVGA GTX 1070 SC ~ 499.88 (I really, really do not want to change this out with an RX-480 or 1060. OutletPC doesn't have a lot of options for those cards.) WD Blue 2TB HDD ~ 69.88 Accessories: 3 Corsair SP-120 fans ~ 74.64 NZXT Sentry 2 ~ 34.39 (Family is an issue here, noises are not a good.) 2pk Masscool 120mm Fan filters ~ 4.98 (Pets.) GeLid 3pcs PCIe dust filter ~ 7.98 (Again, pets.) So, eh, any help?

The Blade is best laptop! I'd most likely use it to replace my old HP Pavillion Media Centre PC laptop for a daily driver. Dear gawd, that thing thermal throttles like a- old laptop that thermal throttles. For actual uses on it, definitely Folding@Home & Boinc. Then gaming. Then watching more LTT videos.
