D15 is almost not availible where im from( or at least very hard to get, when you do finf them they are expensive af compared to the D14) . Its just a temporary cooling solution since my kraken just broke down. I wont be hardcore overclocking the cpu with the D14, maybe a little if temps allow it

will the noctua NH-D14 provide sufficient cooling for a i7 7700k?

in short... no. theres nothing at that price which can play pubg on med. i would go look around the 1000-1200 price range for a decent laptop to play pubg on since its a fairly CPU and GPU intensive game.

blue screens tend to happen. like the other guy said, if it was a 1 time thing. i souldnt worry about it.

all ryzen cpus are overclock-ready, so it really wouldnt make a difference

hello fellow guardian, if it were me. i would strech your budget a tiny bit and go for the zotac gtx 1060 amp edition. that will run D2 on 1080p easily at 60FPS. it will make your budget go to 1040$-ish. other than that other parts look great. also, good luck to you with your journey to get your light back and find and kill that evil cabal leader.

would help if we could see an actual build list somewhere

go for a 850watt PSU, dont take just any cheap one, since it will be the heart of your system. maybe the corsair rm850x will suit your needs or a evga supernova 850G2. for the case its really hard for me to tell you, case is all about personal preference.

nothing wrong with a 7700k if hes just going to use this for gaming???

the z270 lineup from gigabyte is really strong this genenration. i just got my z270x ultra gaming and i love it. solid bios with easy overclocking. the same goes for the other mobos in the gigabyte lineup. the flagship gigabyte mobo is the z270x gaming 9 atm.

well its a x62 with pretty decent stock fans so thats not the problem

thank you for the clear explanation. if its just less noise thing ill keep my 2 stock push fans for now. they are already really quiet as they are.

my temps already are pretty decent imo. only reason for me asking is there isnt really a clear awnser for my question anywhere on any forum.

i have a nzxt kraken x62 AIO with the 2 stock fans on my rad atm. will a push pull config with some better quality fans make a big difference temperature/noise wise? max temps i saw while gaming were around 60 degrees and under full load mid 70's. im running my 7700k on 4,8ghz.
