Hello Guys,

 

I have compiled a list of the components for my new computer and I have few questions...

 

Components list are:

Motherboard: ASUS MAXIMUS VII FORMULA,

CPU: INTEL i7-4790K,

Cooler: Cooler Master Eisberg Prestige 120L or Cooler Master V8 GTS,

RAM: 4x8GB DDR3 2400Mhz Kingston KHX24C11T3K2,

GPU: ASUS ROG STRIKER-GTX760,

Power: Cooler Master V850 850W,

Case: Cooler Master Storm Enforcer,

Fan: Cooler Master MegaFlow 200 Red LED Silent Fan,

Case Accessory: ASUS Front Base

 

This computer will work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, even when I'm gone a few days out of town. I did not have liquid cooling so far, and I'm worried about whether there is a possibility to leak from the cooler.

In addition, I do not have a big house, so that the computer will be in the room where I sleep. It is important to be as quiet as possible.

Which cooler to buy?: Eisberg Prestige 120L or V8 GTS or something else, better?

 

Second question is related to ASUS Front Base and Storm Enforcer case.

Although I looked at a bunch of pictures and videos, I can not see how much space have under the front cover on the case.

I'm wondering, whether the Selection knob on Front Base bother to close the front cover?

 

Thanks in advance

Slavisa

If you look after your cooler it will last you a long time and not suddenly piss all over your stuff. Anyway you can BS your way to an RMA. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III

Get a different GPU, a smaller PSU, and if you want a quite air cooler look at Noctua.
