  1. Think il spend an extra 150 for an Acer predator
  2. I posted about a monitor yesterday I decided to sleep on it I checked amazon today and the "ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q" is only £350 roughly 50% off as tempting as it is too just spend my money this seems almost too good. Here is the link
  3. So I do a decent amount of gaming I have a gtx1080 while looking at high-end monitors I found the " Acer Predator XB271HU 27 inch Widescreen Monitor" which with ips upto 165hz and g-sync it seems to have pretty much everything for around £514. I'm wondering if there's anything I've missed.
  4. ye might just go ahead and watercool the CPU and add the GPU later.
  5. Thanks for the suggestions!! Are the rest of the parts all compatible? Also, your build is insane
  6. intend to game on the system also , a lot of my choices are influenced by how components look 3m in total so I have enough to practice etc. The most I have done with watercooling is applying an AIO, I know hardline is a lot harder just it looks so good and I think the process could be fun. I'm just gonna use the basic stuff not sure what brand yet like the stuff that is just distilled water with additions to stop corrosion and algae growth with some sort of dye thought maybe about using UV but not sure. would like to use primochill vue kinda thing but it is not worth the build up in the system.
  7. Hoping to get some help checking compatibility of the components I have chosen. Also, any suggestions would be much appreciated. I from the UK with a budget of like £500 for water cooling. I already have a system with a gtx1080 and a 6700k I just think upgrading to a water-cooled build would be fun to do, look cool, give room for overclocking and be quiet. I noticed water cooling parts are a lot cheaper on Ek's website and are in euros which isn't really a problem. To make it clear the things I am buying new are the case, motherboard, possibly 1180 and all water-cooling components. Case - Thermaltake Core P3 Motherboard - Asus ROG MAXIMUS IX APEX Socket 1151 Z270 DDR4 S-ATA 600 E-ATX Motherboard CPU - i7 6700k GPU - Gtx 1080 (likely to wait for 1180 or 1180 ti) PSU - 1000w corsair rm ram - 2 sticks of 8gb dominator platinum Radiator - EK-CoolStream CE 420 (Triple) CPU block - EK-Supremacy EVO - Nickel GPU block - EK-FC GeForce GTX FE RGB - Nickel (placeholder for 1180) pump and reservoir -EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 RGB PWM (incl. sl. pump) fittings - EK-HDC Fitting 12mm G1/4 - Black tubing - EK-HD PETG Tube 10/12mm 500mm (2pcs) fans - 3 x Corsair LL140 RGB + Corsair command pro + coolant, heat gun and other tools for hardline
