  1. I've recently been thinking about a custom water cooling loop for my computer, and I'm having a bit of a dilemma. I really want to cool my graphics card, an Asus ROG Strix RX 580 8 GB, but if I do I want a full cover block. Unfortunately I'm not sure where to look or what brands even offer them at decent quality. I realize that most major manufacturers aren't interested in making blocks for the RX 5xx series, but could someone point me in the right direction?
  2. Alright thanks for the tips. I'm not up to date on the bios stuff, but would there be a way to put an FX-8350 in that mobo? Would that alleviate any bottlenecks?
  3. I've wanted to build a gaming PC for a while now, but my dream is finally coming to fruition. My uncle has lent me a bunch of parts from his old computers, and I've been looking for good parts to put in and make it a high-end gaming PC. The parts I am getting or already have include: an ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 motherboard; an FX-6300 with the stock cooler; 32 GB of DDR3 (not sure of the frequency); an EVGA 600B non-modular PSU; and an old mid-tower case from 2007 with a top-mounted PSU. I'm mainly looking for recommendations on what GPU I should get for playing at max settings 60+ FPS. The two main games I play currently are War Thunder and Arma 3, though I enjoy all flight simulators and also hope to get into Escape from Tarkov. I was thinking about getting a Gigabyte Windforce RTX 2070, and though I realized it would be pretty beefy for such an old CPU I was thinking that since most games don't use too many cores it would be fine. Before anyone says to get a used 1080, I'm looking for something brand new and personally am quite interested in the real time ray tracing feature even if it does tank performance, as I will not usually be using it but would enjoy having it. I would be getting a 1440p monitor, hopefully 120hz but I might cheap out and get a 75hz. After that way-too-long description of what I'm looking for, any suggestions or ideas?
