PC Cooling advice?

[Tim_27]

Hey, I've updated my build to have better cooling. PC Part Picker says it has no compatibility issues but I was wondering if the fans will all work correctly, the case comes with 2 fans but I think it needs a extra case fan so I added a extra one?

A case fan is a case fan, as long as your case has empty bays they'll work.

 

Btw I initially looked at your build and thought $2000 for that, wtf? Then I noticed Australian Dollars. You guys really do pay for your stuff, it's more expensive than here in England.

Seems that you're kinda ripping yourself off with the i5/z390, maybe not ripping yourself off but not getting as much performance as you could with 2k.

Do you have any advice on how I could maximize performance with this build and a $2000 AUD budget, should I get a different cpu or something?

Swap the Z390 for a B360 and use the money saved to buy a better CPU.

Sure,  get a 2600 + B450 then get the Ventus 2070,  try and get RAM a little faster, 3000/3200

Comes out to around $2038

And performs around  25% better.

Not cheaper CPU but cheaper board that's good

 

Vega 64 performs just below the RTX 2070, while being $100 cheaper. Just as good value as the RTX 2060 imo, just trying to fit more performance into the budget.

 

Changed the case in an attempt to match the white motherboard (limited success)

 

Change PSU to uh, save a little bit of power? Not sure about how expensive electricity is, but Vega is not the best for saving power.

 

A lot of fans to use up all the space

 

Freesync monitor, also VA instead of TN (though it is slightly curved)
