Will overheat at some point - fanless means VERY high temps and relies on airflow.

A 750Ti with a i5 6600K is not a great choice, get a better graphic card and a i5 6400.

i want it to be able to be used for anything...

im mainly worrying about the ram and motherboard, and with the graphics card if i want fanless the one that i have chosen is the best one that i can get.

 

If you are wanting to go fanless for the sake of quietness, it's really not worth it... You are going to burn up your entire system.

@Luke32800

Personally I do not recomment to cool a 91 watt CPU passive. The Nofan Cr-95 migth be able to cool it when it's not to hot in the room, but you are far better off with a 65 watt CPU.

Also the CR-95 does not fit on an M-ITX board.

 

With a 65 watt CPU you can use a Zalman FX-70. ALso the GPU may not be happy with no airflow at all so you may want to upgrade the cooler to an arctic cooling accelero S3.

 

With the big coolers you need a bigger case. But you need a new case anyway as your one has way to less mesh to boost natual convection.

Mineral oil and 40 kg aluminium heat sinks are a perfect combination: 73 cores and a Titan X, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Oil
