Posted October 23, 2016 well the 6700 paired with that cooler is kinda a wast of money since you cant overclock with that chip. also the price on that PSU and SSD are fairly high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 23, 2016 Yes, this is a very good PC. I can't really recommend a case because I have never really bought a case before and cannot tell you from experience because I have never experienced it before. "May your frame rates be high and your temperatures low" I misread titles/posts way too often--correct me if I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 23, 2016 It's pointless to go for the high-end AIO when you only have a locked CPU (which I find to be interesting since you've opted for the Z170 motherboard and 3200 MHZ RAM). I would get a i7 6700K or a cheap and decent air cooler. 'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum. Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Posted October 23, 2016 Your cooler and motherboard are rendered somewhat useless because you have a locked CPU. you can either get a cheaper cooler and an H170 or H110 motherboard, or get a 6700K. what you choose depends on yourt budget and what you plan to use your computer for My Build, v2.1 --- CPU: i7-8700K @ 5.2GHz/1.288v || MoBo: Asus ROG STRIX Z390-E Gaming || RAM: 4x4GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 2666 14-14-14-33 || Cooler: Custom Loop || GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 Ti SC Black, on water || PSU: EVGA G2 850W || Case: Corsair 450D || SSD: 850 Evo 250GB, Intel 660p 2TB || Storage: WD Blue 2TB || G502 & Glorious PCGR Fully Custom 80% Keyboard || MX34VQ, PG278Q, PB278Q Audio --- Headphones: Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX || Amp: Schiit Audio Magni 3 || DAC: Schiit Audio Modi 3 || Mic: Blue Yeti [Under Construction] My Truck --- 2002 F-350 7.3 Powerstroke || 6-speed My Car --- 2006 Mustang GT || 5-speed || BBK LTs, O/R X, MBRP Cat-back || BBK Lowering Springs, LCAs || 2007 GT500 wheels w/ 245s/285s The Experiment --- CPU: i5-3570K @ 4.0 GHz || MoBo: Asus P8Z77-V LK || RAM: 16GB Corsair 1600 4x4 || Cooler: CM Hyper 212 Evo || GPUs: Asus GTX 750 Ti, || PSU: Corsair TX750M Gold || Case: Thermaltake Core G21 TG || SSD: 840 Pro 128GB || HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB R.I.P.

If you don't plan on overclocking, keep the 6700, get something like a hyper 212 evo or hyper t4, and go with a H110 or H170 motherboard My Build, v2.1 --- CPU: i7-8700K @ 5.2GHz/1.288v || MoBo: Asus ROG STRIX Z390-E Gaming || RAM: 4x4GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 2666 14-14-14-33 || Cooler: Custom Loop || GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 Ti SC Black, on water || PSU: EVGA G2 850W || Case: Corsair 450D || SSD: 850 Evo 250GB, Intel 660p 2TB || Storage: WD Blue 2TB || G502 & Glorious PCGR Fully Custom 80% Keyboard || MX34VQ, PG278Q, PB278Q Audio --- Headphones: Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX || Amp: Schiit Audio Magni 3 || DAC: Schiit Audio Modi 3 || Mic: Blue Yeti [Under Construction] My Truck --- 2002 F-350 7.3 Powerstroke || 6-speed My Car --- 2006 Mustang GT || 5-speed || BBK LTs, O/R X, MBRP Cat-back || BBK Lowering Springs, LCAs || 2007 GT500 wheels w/ 245s/285s The Experiment --- CPU: i5-3570K @ 4.0 GHz || MoBo: Asus P8Z77-V LK || RAM: 16GB Corsair 1600 4x4 || Cooler: CM Hyper 212 Evo || GPUs: Asus GTX 750 Ti, || PSU: Corsair TX750M Gold || Case: Thermaltake Core G21 TG || SSD: 840 Pro 128GB || HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB R.I.P.

Posted October 23, 2016 I would recommend you get an I5-6600K (don´t know why nobody suggested it yet, I guess hyperthreading would benefit video editing but other than that I don´t see why not picking an 6600k) and for the case I got the NZXT H440 and its awesome, just google it, it looks really amazing and you can match your setup theme, I got a red and black one to match my msi motherboard and graphics card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
