  1. @aezakmi Thank you very much for the info, I understand it's not so simple, and I'm only going to do it once I am fully informed. Is what you say about the kraken true. I was literally about to hit pay, but now you have made me rethink. I don't really have alternatives though... I mean it's got great reviews. You have the 110i, is that good? better really than x62. Are the default fans loud?
  2. Ok, thanks. Going for Kraken. It's aesthetically perfect IMO.
  3. @LoGiCalDrm Thanks. Do you think it would be good enough to handle full 5GHz OC? Otherwise I'm going with NZXT Kraken X62, mostly for the looks
  4. I am working on new gaming PC and looking for a cooler but the site from which I am buying everything (live in spain - https://www.pccomponentes.com/ -- you may need VPN to access, they seem to be region blocked) don't have many air cooler options. I think the best air cooler option that fits my case is the Phanteks TC12DX. Would it be enough for moderate overclocking? What about OC up to 5GHz? Or should I go with a AIO, if so, which one. Also how much OC would you recommend for a complete beginner? Please don't recommend things which aren't on the site if possible. Thanks for any help.

  5. Ok Thanks guys. I'm probably going to go for the Hyper 212 EVO, do you think it will cover up the ram much? Will the ram be too tall to fit? Also, is overclocking so complicated that on first try you should only do small OC?, I though you could just change some values in a Asus control panel or something. If I were to OC it more, which cooler would you recommend?
  6. @Sernefarian @SolarNova I would go for air cooler, but The NH-D15 isn't in stock, and they don't have neither Be Quiet or Cryorig. But they do have the CM Hyper 212 EVO, do you think that would be enough for a bit of OC?
  7. @SolarNovaDon't know much about it, but that's the plan, at least a little. To make use of the 8600K.
  8. Hello First time building new gaming PC, I've done a lot of research, but I still want people with experience to check that everything is compatible and that it's good quality or components that you'd recommend. Any comments are appreciated. My max budget is 1800€ and this costs ~1750€. This is the link to where I'm getting everything from (https://www.pccomponentes.com/configurador/EcDc15551 (I live in spain)) or see the list below. This is mainly for gaming (PUBG, Elite Dangerous, The Witcher 3, Metal Gear Solid V...) I currently have a 1080p monitor but will upgrade to 1440p 144Hz at end of year. Looking for opinions on what could be changed or improved... oh, and is the 1080 GPU a good one?
