Can switch psu for the 650 gq. Less fans. Cheaper case like the S340.

Cheap Windows/Office

Do you really need Hyperthreading?

All this for a single 390?

Why low profile RAM with an AIO?

Why everything from Amazon?

Why the obsession with RGB lighting?

Why so many questions? (I know why)

 

Everything is from Amazon because I live 7,981 miles / 12,844 kilometers away from the United States. (My location is New York in LTT Forums because I have an address there) and because my country is so bad in new tech stuff, and it's so much easier for me to just buy everything from one merchant instead of buying so many different pieces from different merchants and having higher risk of getting shipping problems.

Where is that may I ask?

I'd rather not tell the exact country, as I personally find that personal information,but it's somewhere in the Middle East.

Ok

Sooo

What about the other questions I asked?

1. Yes

2. Yes

3. Is it really low profile? I never knew that RAM has anything to do with an AIO cooler to be honest.

4. Answered

5. Lets focus on the build here, not the peripherals.

where's the problem ? just return it :P and then buy the bigger one  or does amazon in your region miss this option of free returns ?

just say you ordered the wrong size and ... done

 

low profile ram is important for aircooling ( so the big cooler wont touch the ram )

with your watercooling you could get other profile ram without problems

 

i'd change the build a bit and get a nice 980ti instead of a r9 390 in a 2k build

Why should I get a 500GB SSD when I have a 250GB SSD and the title and description clearly says that I want to decrease the total price?

I can help you with that :) 

  • Ditch the i7. Assuming you are at 1080p you could get away with an i3. I reccomend that Yu step down to a i5 6400 and a H170 motherboard to save money. If you are doing content creation or somthing maybe step down to an i76700 and a h170 motherboard.
  • I never, ever, ever reccomend close loop coolers. If you want liquid then go for a custom loop or at least an enthusiast grade AIO. Since I reccomended a non overerclockable chip I reccomend a solid mid range air cooler. The BeQuiet! Shadow Rock Slim is a great choice but if you want a better looking cooler the Dark Rock 3 and the EK Predator 240 are both great options. 
  • I'm pretty sure those coolers come with thermal compound but ok. 
  • What I always reccomend is that you get 8gb of ram, monitor it, and then decide if you really need more. If you do then, no loss, if you don't, money saved! 
  • SSD is good and HDD is good. Maybe step down to a 1tb we black or even a WD blue or seagate barracuda but yeah. Nothing wrong here
  • 390 is good but at 1080p 60htz it's a little overkill. Look at a 380x. It's cheaper and still offers enough preformance to upgrade to 1440p in the future. 
  • Step down from the h440 to the s340. Still a super nice and clean case, just a bit less silence and more budget oriented. 
  • Dude. Really? A platinum supply? Go for a gold supply from Seasonic, Evga or corsair or step down to a CX or CXM supply from corsair which are a still solid 80plus bronze. 
  • Get Windows from kinguin and just use google drive 
  • Do you really need wifi? If you do then just for for a sub dongle. Cheap AF. 
  • Those LEDs we kinda shit. Get Bitfenix alchemy 

hope I helped. Tell me what you think :) 

I'm here to help people and have fun. Feel free to chat!
