Help - Potential Incompatibility?

Cyqix

Hi,

was putting together he plan for my pc build

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/NVKWwV

is the plan

 

Keeps saying something about it possibly not fitting in the case - Can someone check this out for me?

 

What are your thoughts about the build parts in general

 

EDIT: Changed Cooler to H7

looks good but, get a better cooler, a 7700k won't do well with a small cooler like that, especially with a good overclock. get a better aftermarket gpu

 

i have a framed picture of that sloth somewhere

Any reason you're going for a LP cooler?

Looks totally fine. I checked the NZXT homepage and it states for the S340:

- GPU clearance without radiator 360 mm

- cpu clearance 161 mm

 

Also a pleasure to respond to your posts if you know what i mean :D

Wanted to recommend/ask the same thing too. No SSD?

I'm planning to duel boot - How would I run both mac and windows off one SSD & then store data on HDD

I understand that feeling. A Hyper 212 evo would be better and quieter.

You would just put two partitions on the SSD.

Multiple Partitions:

At the end, just make each one half the total size.

 

Dual booting Mac and Windows:
