Yes, it is true. If you're willing to delid you can drop temps by like 20 degrees

 

PSU is a bit overkill, and I'd upgrade to a 280mm AIO like a H115 or a Kraken X62 or maybe consider custom cooling.

Yes the I7 7700K does heat up a lot when overclocking. You should really also take an SSD, at this price point it's a must for a boot drive for windows 10 which runs very slow on mechanical drives (in comparison to SSD's). The PSU is kinda overkill, You'd get away with an 650 watt 80 plus bronze.and I suggets you get a better GPU because that 1070 would be a bottleneck for the i7 7700K overclocked.

If you have to spend that amount of money for a 1070, just go with a 1080. It's only 30 bucks more for a nice performance bump.

There are 1070s that are much cheaper...

Yeah, it heats up a lot, if you're down to delid it, it would help a lot, also your power supply is too much, according to part picker you only need 360w so maybe go for like a 400-500w PSU. Use the money you save from the PSU to get yourself an SSD.

"Make it future proof for some years at least, don't buy "only slightly better" stuff that gets outdated 1 year, that's throwing money away" @pipoawas

 

-Frequencies DON'T represent everything and in many cases that is true (referring to Individual CPU Clocks).

 

Mention me if you want to summon me sooner or later

My head on 2019 :

Note 10, S10, Samsung becomes Apple, Zen 2, 3700X, Renegade X lol
