Go to solution Solved by Altecice,

Looks fine but change the fans. also 3 meters of tubing is quite a lot just cut more than what you need as you can always shorten the length later. Also just a heads up. DONT use anything over Prime95 version 26.6 when testing a 4790k they overheat. Also if your going to OC then  1.32 is about the max vcore for 24/7 use.

What I've seen, the fans have good static pressure, are quite silent, and do the job just fine. Is there a specific reason for better fans?
