Case and CPU coolers - White and Black build

Hey all,

I want to build a 1080p60fps pc that is in black and white theme. As a start - I know that I'll pay extra for many things just to get black and white... This is what I came up with https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Verrm/saved/7F9LkL

Question in this forum is:

1. Case is Corsair Carbide 400c White. I want to put Aerocool DS 140mm White 93.4 CFM 140mm Fans - 2 at the front and 1 in back. Does it makes sense?

2. What good looking CPU cooler would look in this case and mobo? Should I leave the stock cooler of ryzen 1600? Might be a led/rgb cooler...

 

Oh and please - I don't want coolers with coil whines or sounding like a jet engine... Currently I run laptop that sounds like it might take off at any time, not fun.

 

EDIT: Added a CRYORIG H7 CPU cooler and changed one of the Aerocool DS fans to 120mm for compatibility. What do you guys think of those Aerocool fans?

cryorig H7 or C7 would probably look pretty cool.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

And in the Carbide 400C, the front fits two 140s, but the rear only fits a 120.

That's a small low profile cooler, it's not even in the same league as the AXP-200. With the AXP-200 he can OC his 1600 and still have low temps.

I did think of an AIO, specifically Deepcool CAPTAIN 240EX WHITE. It does look amazing, but I thought that it is a bit risky as some report leaks and I cannot afford something to get broken. Also I'm not sure how to maintain such a cooler. What cooler does your friend have? I chose air cooler as they are cheaper, perform well and dont risk leaks.

Thanks for this tip. Also for catching that in rear I need 120 not 140 :)

 

Here are my thoughts on coolers:

1. Cryorig C7 - Looks good, might be a nice fit color-wise although I read that it might be noisy. On the other hand it might be quieter then ryzen 1600 stock cooler....

2. Cryorig H7 - This is quite a bulky one, but with good opinions, I fear of it covering a huge part of my mobo. And I specifically want that mobo for it's looks.

3. ThermalRight AXP-200 Muscle - I think it have the looks, but I'm not sure if it won't interfere with my RAM sticks. Would be a shame if it does. On the other hand I can try it out and then return it to the shop if it would interfere... I just saw on youtube full measurement specs, I might use this as a reference.

If you are looking for cooler that covers least mobo and still has good cooling power, AIO is only choice. All air coolers will cover some of mobo. H7 is among the smallest tower coolers, only covering socket and bit more. I would pick that any day over low-profile cooler when you have room in case.

You guys got me on this one. It might be bulky but I'll give it a try. Updated the list https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Verrm/saved/7F9LkL
