Hello

I make a new pc gaming and I choose hardware are:

CPU: Intel i7-7700K

Motherboard: ASUS Z170-PRO

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4-2400MHz (CMK16GX4M2A2400C16) or G.Skill Ripjaws4 16GB DDR4-2133MHz (F4-2133C15D-16GRR) or G.Skill Ripjaws4 16GB DDR4-2666MHz (F4-2666C16Q-16GRB)

Graphics Card: ASUS ROG-STRIX-GTX1070TI-A8G-GAMING

SSD: Samsung 850 Pro 256GB

PSU: Corsair RMx Series 750X

CPU Cooler: Zalman CNPS9900 MAX or Cooler Master MasterAir Maker 8 or Cooler Master MasterAir MA610P or Arctic Freezer 33 eSports Edition or Noctua or be quiet

 

and I need your help about RAM, CPU Cooler. Which of these do I choose?

 

Thank you

why 7700k, thats last gen now, go 8400 for simmilar performance and cheaper or 8700k for the replacement.

 

Same with 850 evo, 860 evo is out now.

 

750w psu is overkill, 450+ is fine here.

 

Id get a hdd 250gb will fill up very fast.

First why would you pick an i7-7700k and pair it with a Z170? I'd suggest you trying to use the eight gen of intel CPUs along with a Z370 motherboard.

As for the ram, I'd suggest you pick the cheapest one between these three because Intel does not require that much ram speed. Ofc  higher speed will always be better but it does not require that fast as Ryzen does.

CPU Cooler it depends on what will you do with the CPU. ATM on an i5-8600k I am using a Coolermaster 212X and it keeps the CPU under 65 deg C even on Full Load and on stress test(even mining).

Get an 8th gen i7/i5- it will perform better. The psu you chose it's wayyyy to overkill. Remember to get a Z370 motherboard too! The older chpisets don't work with 8th gen cpus.

I don't buy new motherboard because I gifted the motherboard with Z170.

Also, I have a question. Do the CPU Cooler: Zalman CNPS9900 MAX or Cooler Master MasterAir Maker 8 or Cooler Master MasterAir MA610P or Arctic Freezer 33 eSports Edition or Noctua or be quiet are good hardware?
