Scared about building a pc

[gazdadude]

I'm really nervous about cooling and gpu I'm looking at the 1060 gaming x and the corsair obsidian 450d and really worried about airflow can someone give me some advice please

Shouldn't be a issue.

The fans that come with the case will be enough.

If you are concerned:

1. The GPU will automatically slow itself down if neccisary

2. Just increase GPU fan speed in MSI Afterburner

 

If I am correct that is a MSI card and MSI cards have outstanding coolers

 

Also have fun buildng

Thank you

 

Also should I use liquid or air cooling and where is best to put them should they be intake or exhaust if liquid

depends on a few things, is your cpu unlocked, do you have i7 or i5?

If you are using a K CPU and plan on overclocking, go for an AiO cooler for the CPU, if not just get a high end air and save the money, unless you're concerned about noise. Also, I always recommend putting rads as exhaust, that way the air going into the system is not all hot.

watch Bitwit's vid he uploded like 2 hours ago on rad placement. putting rad as intake made a 10 degree difference on the i7 7700k he had at 5Ghz.

Will do, and yeah that's what I mean, the CPU takes all the cool air, this will help the CPU but did he do a check on the GPU? The GPU will be getting all the hot air expelled by the rad.

he checked everything, the graphics card was not influenced by the rad taking fresh air in up the front,

Hmm, I'll check Kyle's science, if this is true then put the rad on the front OP if you get one.
