I don't know what you're doing getting expensive parts but cheaping out on the PSU. get a 750w MSI A-GF or enermax revolution DF instead.

How is it cheaping out on the PSU? I was going for 1000W so that when I upgrade down the road I won't have to worry about getting an upgrade power source. The two items you listed go for about $83.00 to $95.00. Little bit more context to why you think this would be helpfully.

A decent kilowatt PSU starts at at least $160, and coolmax has a reputation of selling crappy PSUs. The two i mentioned earlier are both well-reviewed high-quality units.

If you need more than one pci-e 4.0 SSD, sure. But both our lists don't.

Its about brand, unknown brands tend to use crappy components. You need to ensure they use quality components and dont pull a Gigabyte and catch fire. Keep in mind, a cheaply made PSU can not only fry itself, but take out other parts. Which you may or may not be able to replace. 

 

 

This thread has info on PSU quality. I would look here first. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

You are looking for both a futureproof rig and a workstation class one i guess so did some minor changes and upgrades

 

Swapped mb for a cheaper x570 tomahawk

 

Swapped sad 970 evo for a gen4 ssd so when these become useful you can harness the benifits

 

Swapped the questionable 1000w for a 1200w platinum psu (overkill but atleast you dont have to worry about buying another psu for the next decade or 2)

Btw if you dont need an aio you can just swap the cooler for a drp4 or nhd15 so you wont have to swap the cooler, heck itll prob outlast the system by a long shot so expect 2 decades minimum for a high quality air cooler (assuming you swap the fans once they die every ~5-10 years)

I thought with the CPU I'm getting a AIO would be better than an fan one, thoughts? Something like this, https://www.amazon.com/quiet-Dark-Rock-BK022-Cooler/dp/B07BY6F8D9 ?

Aio if you want performance/silence

Aircooler if you want futureproof and durability

 

 

Aio will usually last ~3-5 years but has great performance and also not a pain in the ass when working around the socket cause you dont have a literal brick cooling the cpu

 

aircooler will basically last forever as long as you swap the fans when they die, heck even the fans take awhile to die, my gts 250 which is ~11-12 years old still has a working stock fan and cooler, prob gonna take a few more years to have the fan actually die

Got ya. Thanks I think about your input and the two suggetings. I have a fan only in my system and other than just cleaning it out I had no issues. May be better as well incase something breaks and liquids don't go over other items in the case.
