So I have been reading online the case doesn't allow top mounted aio's but from what I have seen so far, it doesn't look like it would be obstructed at all. I have a 120 mm radiator and to me, looking at the pictures, it looks like it would fit just fine. What am I not seeing?

bump

thanks for the clarification. I really need to know where this product is being made for future reference. Considering the state of affairs in China, I'm worried that not only will the p400A not go on sale any time soon, it might go up in price so I'm wondering if the price it is at now is the best we'll see for a while. Obviously if it isn't made in China, that might change my decision.

Yea, something like a "Made in ___" label.

Basically just what the title says. I cannot find anything on their website.

I have no more room in the front, 2 spots in the top and 1 spot in the bottom. Its a pretty crap case. would having more airflow affect my gpu temps a lot? I feel like my temps arent because of the card

My pc has 1 Intake fan at the front and 1 exhaust at the back which is covered by my 120 mm radiator. My gpu temps (970) are huge when doing even basic overclocking and the gpu runs at around 70 to 80% speed to keep the gpu at the low 80's. ive seen forums complaining about gpu temps being at 70 while im here reaching 88C most of the time. Anyway i think the issue is my airflow. I was thinking about installing the radiator with its fan on the top and putting a case fan where it is now at the back. Would this fix any issues i might be having? CPU temps are fine.

ok. does everything else look good in your eyes? im ordering the parts for him on friday.

I think im gonna keep the memory as saving money, even 20 or so dollars is worth more than a tiny boost to ram speed. ill oc when i can. the cooler looks nice so ill keep it. ill oc the cpu for him. i changed the psu, mobo and graphics card. im skeptical on the graphics card change. is the 2060S as good as what i had before?

could he just oc the ram to get equivalent performance? is 3600mhz that much better?

any particular one in mind? my cousin probably wont oc, so i probably dont need an expensive cooler.

This is the max I can spend. Nothing has been purchased yet. Some things Im worried about is if the cooler and card will fit. He's good on operating system and storage. Im skeptical about the compatibility between the nvidia card and the amd cpu, I assumed they don't work well together but multiple people recommended amd. my cousin plays the latest games and this system needs to last him 5-7 years so he needs some good stuff right now to keep up later down the road. any tips on how to keep the same performance while being cheaper? I havent purchased anything

as far as i know, the most demanding game is r6s. maybe doom, dmc5, and mordhau is what he has right now. what he really needs is longevity. this build needs to last him for about 5-6 years. any specific psu in mind? no no. i made this build on pc part picker. nothing has been purchased

my brother hates me. he originally was gonna go for 200, but when i walked out of his room and came back in, he upped it to 250 because he googled the selling price. I hope he can go for 200. thanks for the help

My brother recently got a new gpu for his computer and his willing to sell me his old 1080 for $250. My current pc has a evga 970 and a 6600k. I dont play that many modern games. i think the most demanding games I have are hitman 2 and siege. I have a 1080p 144hz monitor. I also have a 4k tv which Im hoping I could hook up with my pc to play games on my bed. I have my cpu overclocked to 4.5ghz. so is it worth it? would it even be that much of an upgrade? also, how future proofed would i be?

So should I go ask the CPU board then or do you have a specific recommendation? I thought a 10 series wouldn't be bottlenecked by an oc 6600k.

I currently have the following setup: EVGA GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0 Intel I5 6600k overclocked to 4600mhz Asus Z170 Pro Gaming motherboard Corsair Carbide Spec-02 case Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD 2TB Seagate HDD ASUS VG248Q 144hz monitor What would you guys recommend for a GPU upgrade based on a $500 budget?

Also I mentioned that I oc'd my cpu to 4.6 ghz. Does that remove any bottleneck at all? I dont fully understand how that works

I barely use my 4k tv. If I ever use it its for small games. should I still get a 1080?

the 1080p monitor is 144hz and the 4k is 60hz so I should get a 1070 if I'm understanding you correctly?

It's a 1080p monitor. Maybe, if I get the money, I will get a 1440p monitor but 1080p does just fine. I do have a 4k tv that maybe I will play some light casual games on.

As in the title I OC'd my 6600k to 4.6ghz and am planning to get a 1080 ftw edition from evga. What kind of performance will I get from it compared to a 1070 or 1060? Witcher 3, Siege, Dishonored 2, and Mankind Divided are the most demanding games I will probably play. Will I bottleneck?

I know this is a very common problem and most people say use the usb thing but I never needed to use that before. Anyway. I am trying to transfer all the data from my 500GB SSD to my 250GB SSD. I have the correct size for the transfer so thats fine. The problem comes when I press start and my 250GB SSD just flatout is not an option. Windows recognizes it as a Samsung SSD but the software doesn't. Anyone have any immediate suggestions that arent get the usb adapter or change the Sata location cause I did that already.
