Does it have to be exclusive to the brand (Like for example only Corsair RGB fans can work with Corsair AIO's or NZXT fans with NZXT Kraken only) Or can it be like I can put an NZXT RGB fan with the corsair AIO

That's another good question. I haven't played with RGB stuff in a while (not a huge fan). I would create a new thread with that as the topic.

No, it doesn't have to be exclusive.

Will coffee lake i7 bottleneck with 1060 6gb?

The 8700 will be fine for any card really (excluding very cpu intensive games and low resolution gaming).

Isn't i5 8600k at 5GHz better than i7 8700 even in multithreaded worklod?
