[TrevorMcNeill]

So I am working on a new build and I need some thoughts on it issues/improves. I will be on a 1080 monitor for now but will upgrade later on. It will be for gaming(ArmA 3, Squad, ect.). I don't need any peripherals.(All Prices In USD)

Unless you plan on SLI that PSU is overkill, could probably get away with a 700w and save some $$.. aside from that i would go to Kinguin.net for your OS, save $67 on that. looks good though

Yeah I went overkill on it because later on when the single GPU starts to struggle I'll pick up a second to sli. And good catch on the OS will do. Thanks

going push or pull instead of push/pull could save you a little money at the cost of hardly any noise (no cooling performance lost if fans spinning more) plus, those fans aren't pwn, so to turn them down, you'll need some sort of fan controller. Other than that, I agree with @derick90

Yeah I was on the fence on whether to go push/pull/both so for now I just put both for price view and from what I read the motherboard has a internal fan controller but I may go with a dedicated one.

Yeah just keep in mind you don't get much cooling bonus by going push/pull, it's only used so you can turn the fans down and get the same performance, but at a lower noise level.

Psu is a bit overkill, you could tone it back and use the money saved on another ssd or something.

Most importantly, scrap every... single... one... of... those... fans.

Corsair makes straight up, the WORST "premium" fans out there. they are far... far louder than the competition. Save your money, and your ears, get fans from phanteks, be quiet, noctua, or another retailer.

And as a bonus, if you want far better radiator performance slap some noctuas on it, or some gentle typhoon, or some ekwb vardar fans. they're more expensive but all of those options are near completely silent, and operate FAR better than the shit stock fans that come with the h100.
