Do my RGB fans fit and PSU cable question.

Hi this is the build i am going for:

I will leave the 3 front preinstalled fans in the case but i will be placing 3 RGB ones at the top and 1 in the back. I have only worked with corsair controller so far and never with cooler master. 

Will all those 4 fans fit on my motherboard inclusive RGB?

 

Also since the case is pretty big its recommended to buy psu cable extensions are there any good ones you guys can recommend. 

 

Thanks in advance.

I want rgb fan at the top so the radiator would be between the fan and the case exhausting

swap for something else. even if you want overkill, there is better overkill at this budget.

would probably change for SSD setup instead of a spinning drive. especialy when you are gonna waste literally a day trying to write that entire drive.

Don't let yourself being stopped by all this saltyness here, still your money.

 

If you need a 10TB HDD go for a 10TB HDD, for myself I move away from spinning drives because of the noise they cause.

If you want this Asus PSU go for it, it's not that bad either, but I'd also take one from bequiet! or like me the Corsair AXi 1600.

 

Edit: Also sorry, haven't used rgb fans and don't plan to.

id probably pick some better fans, and you can checkk which fans fit on the website to asus under specs. 

 

https://www.asus.com/Gaming-Case/ROG-Strix-Helios/specifications/

 

and looking at it, you should be using 140mm fans, not 120mm to get the most out of the case.

if he is looking at spending that much on a PSU, he should be looking at godly PSUs and not something that has a small screen that displays wattage. 

 

then again, that is me. considering its the PSU, and not something you will be looking at all the time. 

 

and a corsair axi, or Delta GM (like the Cooler master V1200) has a lot more bragging rights among enthusiasts

exactly my thought aswell, the screen is just a gimmick, but if he likes it that much, why not I guess?

I will repshrase the question the pc i am trying to make needs 3950x rtx 2080ti.

And needs a bunch of rgb parts thats what i was asked for to put together. The money does not matter at this point. it even may be ITX as you said yesterday @GoldenLag but the person didnt like the handle.

 

Do you have a proposition that works better and is more cost effective then? but still looks very good.

thoughts on corsairs setup?

you are unlikely to find RGB stuff for PSUs as they most often are hidden behind a shroud.

so you like the white accented display the corsair HXI has? then id just go with that. its overkill, but so is your entire system anyways, so why not.
