Help with final plans?

[Gregz The Great]

Will this all work? Did I do a good job picking the parts?

Any suggestions for a better air cooler that'll fit? (No noctua suggestions please) I was going to go with the H100i, but it's too risky in my eyes, and costs too much for me.

Anyway, thoughts?

PLEASE NOTE: I have not listed a PSU or a GPU as I already own both. A Corsair CS750M PSU and a Gigabyte GTX 780ti Windforce GPU. Will they also work with this build?

I've heard that the Dark Rock 3 is too big, and RAM cannot fit underneath it?

[Gregz The Great]

Thank you

I suppose there's no improvement on the cooling system you could suggest or will the one I've selected do just fine?

It'll do fine but I would probably get this or something similar ---> https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rr212e20pkr2

 

It is cheaper and quieter and should still be good

[Rheinwasser]

get 8gb of ram and with the money you saved an h100i or h220 0r a nice noctua cooler.

you can always upgrade ram but upgrading the cooler is annoying.

Nope. Just put the fan on the other side. Also you know the Hyper 212 evo is bigger than the Dark rock 3. Alsoi you were using really high profile ram. I have told you this atleast 5 times so far don't get the Corsair Pro ram. It's a waste of money. But I digress.

Wait what? How in hell is the Hyper 212 EVO quieter than the Dark Rock 3? No. Just no.

Ahh wasn't paying attention but at £50 fuck that, rather go with the Cooler Master and it is only slightly louder, hell wouldn't even be noticeable unless you game in a professional quiet room.

I like my things to run cool, be pretty and to be quiet!  (pun intended)

Lol I like it and also hell may as well recommend a Corsair H100 while we're at it, only an extra £40-50 or something like it

But that's loud and looks bad. It's a 24 Pounds difference...

Ooo cheaper than I thought, may have to invest in one at some point or something similar

We'll see, at the moment I only have a Core i3-2120 which runs between 55-60 degrees when Folding and gaming but I have seen a very reasonable Core i7-2600K on eBay that I might buy once I've replaced the tyres on my car.

 

I must say that their coolers look pretty good and I'm hoping at around £50-60 be Quiet are worth it

I don't have a review of the Dark rock 3 handy but one of the dark rock 3 pro from OC3D  

http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/cases_cooling/bequiet_dark_rock_pro_3_review/6

 

So it's good looking and relatively easy to fit, but how loud is it.  Well for once we can genuinely say the clue's in the name.  It really is very quiet indeed.  In fact we'd go as far as to say it's one of the quietest coolers we've ever tested, and yes, that does include the Noctuas and yes we do mean the D14 also.  We test all our coolers at the full twelve volts, and where some AIOs may be screaming like a Sharon on a Saturday night the Pro 3 was as quiet as a peado in a Barney suite.

 

Competition wise, if you're looking for an air cooler there isn't actually much else to put on your shopping list.  Granted the D14 performs better but not by much and it is arguably a little louder (yes, we actually said that), and let’s be honest, unless you like natural Aluminium fins and fans the colour of poo and prosthetic limbs then you have to agree the Pro 3 does make the D14 look rather like the Ginger step kid.  Even if we compare the Pro 3 to AIOs out there it still stands up rather well.  Bettering most and for about the same money as some, and less than a good few others.

 if yoou can get a better cpu cooler so do it the hyper 212 evo isn't good enough try the Corsair H60 or CM Seidon 120M cheap efficient

everything should work greatly!!!!

What makes you say it isn't good enough?

[8darKnight9]

What makes you say it isn't good enough?

for that i read multiple reviews saying that hyper 212 evo isnt good enough for over clocking AIO LC like the corsair H60 outperforms it!!!
