Best, fans and Corsair / Cooler Master don't belong in the same sentence.  Corsair and Cooler Master fans are nothing special. When in doubt Noctua PWM fans.

@nsyedhasan have fun crying yourself to sleep, there are reasons i picked the parts i did and those parts are suited to my needs, i have only asked the community to suggest air coolers/fans to finish my build so i can build my rig, not tell me what to build or spend my money on. Thank you for understanding what i have said and if you have a problem with what i have said do not reply!

Arctic Cooling is a good value by a very solid manufacture.  Right now I'm clocked at 4.5 with 5.4 gb used in memory while running Prime95, so far 68 degrees C is highest i have hit.

Well all I can do is recommend not force. But why the mismatch colors for the RAM and Mobo?

You can buy it from anywhere. It is from reddit/r/softwareswap and it is completely legit.

Hello CraftyMiner88, you have a black 760T with red front fans included and a red motherboard so I would suggest you get:

- Corsair AP 140mm Red LED x4 (1x Back, 3x Top)

- I recommend Noctua NH-D15 or Thermalright Silverarrow SB-e/IB-e air coolers, they are the best air coolers that rival most all-in-one water coolers and they will look mighty beautiful in your system. If you don't want to use the included fans of these coolers, they both come with top notch quality fans mind you, I recommend you get 2x Corsair SP 120 fans and use the red rings that come with them in the system.

 

 

Edit: Oh and I recommend having the front fans as intake, top as exhaust and back fan as intake. This will give you a roughly balanced air pressure so you don't have to dust the joints of your case every now and then for the sucked in dust due to negative air pressure inside your case. Mount your air cooler to intake from the back and exhaust towards the front (in other words upside down). This should give you the best cooling potential in a 760T.

I hope it's a troll, otherwise I sincerely hope he brings this over to the build/planning subforum and gets some advice, cause this is 1000$ over valued and missing some significant optimization.

This build looks like you just read up a bunch of review saying it's "The Best" and slapped them all together. Why.

Firstly, why the AX1500i? The VelociRaptor HDD? The Motherboard I'd say isn't needed, but it's your call. But with that mobo, at least try and colour match the RAM (because I believe you care about looks due to you using the 760T).

 

Other than that, you're looking at the Noctua NH-D15 for a good airflow cooler, while going for a budget, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo is a good option. But with the price, I'd either go with a NH-D15 or a high-end AiO. If you're comfortable, try a custom loop. You apparently have $500 to spend on a cooler  :blink:

Please don't get that build. I am going to cry myself to sleep if you buy that build. I will make you one in a second.

That build is fine other than the sound card, no real need for it with that mobo. The PSU is a bit overkill unless you plan to SLI.

 

OH PLEASE get rid of that HDD. it's a waste of money. Get a WD black series and a decent sized SSD and you'll be good to go.

 

Also, Adata 1600 ram, way cheaper for probably the exact same performance

 

For what your spending, get a noctua air cooler, don't bother with the hyper 212

A 3000$ build and it doesn't have a second GPU nor a higher end SSD like the 840 EVO?

Phanteks PH-TC14PE_BK  This has the same performance as the nactua nd-15 here is the link http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835709011 I bought this because its cheap nicer then the nd-15 and you can choose between colors. also its very quiet with fans at 100% and i bought an extra fan so its a 3fan set up. By the way my i74790 is clocked in at 5ghzs under 85C the hotter the cpu the better this heat-sink performs. hope his helps

CPU:I7-4790K @ 4.8ghz MOTHERBOARD:MSI-Z97-G45 Ram:G-SKILL SNIPER 8GB 1866 GPU:Msi GTX 970 4G COOLER:PHANTEK PH TC14PE BK 3 FAN CONFIG PSU:Roswell Lightning 1300W HDD: 1TB WD, 2TB SEGATE Mushkin 120GB SSD CASE:COOLER MASTER HAF 922

If youre going to build a 3000$ computer you probably don't want a 30$ fan protecting it.

 

Look into water cooling.

 

And maybe a solid state hard drive while youre at it...

Are you blind? Custom: A-Data SP920 1TB that is an ssd!

I picked these parts myself, not parts that people say are the "best". Also, the 1500i because I want to be able to do anything (be able to change parts as I go), the VelociRaptor 10000rpm for video (YouTube/twitch). The first build plan I had was $5000 so I have downgraded my plan!

Price isn't an issue and this is my build and this is your opinion.
