ditch kingston v300 ssd, the specs are wrongs. choose brand like Crucial, Corsair, Sandisk, Samsung, Intel, mushkin, etc.

and 16gb of ram is overkill but it works, and that was the question.

 

great build OP.

may your framerates be high and your temperatures be low. #pcmr

great build OP.

When going for a build for over 1200 bucks/1000 euro It actually is worth getting 16gb of ram, Multitasking becomes better and it is a overall faster more fluid experience,

I feel that 8gb of RAM is a little low wen i both game and have chrome or/and other software open on another monitor. Or when hosting servers.

since you are going with atx and you have room in there I suggest a high end air cooler over the All in One Water Loop. not to mention less chances of part failure.

 

some coolers users have had good experiences with

-Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3

-Cryorig R1 Ultimate

-Noctua NH-D15

 

they are about the same price as the h90

@Bjerger

front intake and side intake

back and top exhaust

fans pushing air on cpu /vrms

fans pushing air under gpu

 

those are my recommendations, other members have their preferred way, some prefer positive air pressure some prefer negative, I prefer open side with lots of fan on the cpu heatsink and gpu

Always in the front in the bottom out the back out the top. Unless you have a rad in the top and you want to suck in through it. Then your rear will be your only exhaust and you'll feel a LOT of air come through it. Do not use dust filters with radiators. They cut the air flow too much.
