You should look for longevity in parts which don't get technically obsolete.

Like you sure you don't ever need 5.25" bay for fan controller or other such panel?

It's not like those break aesthetics behind door of Define R cases...

 

While in PSU Seasonic Focus Plus Platinum would be likely good amount cheaper for at least same quality.

Unless pricing of it is expensive in your country. (Sweden?)

 

Also while AMD was completely out of high end for long time (because of failed architecture) Ryzens aren't really much behind Intel in anything while you would hae possibility to upgrade CPU in couple years.

On Intel side you're stuck with same CPU unless wanting to change motherboard with Intel actually switching sockets for fun of it.

All review results aren't even anymore fully accurate with Intel needing lots of security patches to plug vulnerabilities coming from mostly oldish design.

 

For cooling custom water coolers made from quality parts certainly can offer lot more than air coolers, but it's not automatically that rosy...

As in air cooler cooling as well with less noise than that water cooler:

looks good but if your building it in a couple of months I would suggest doing it closer to the time as the i7-8086K (a 8700K with a higher base clock) is rumoured to launch soon™ as it's it's 40th birthday or something but yea I woud suggest waiting for that maybe, as the price of the 8700K might drop slightly so you can get a better deal on that (just to save you money as I think the rumors are saying it'll be only a 0.4GHz boost to both boost and base (I would guess personally it will be a 0.4GHz on base, and 0.1-0.3GHz to boost max) but even still it's not a big improvement but it might lower pricing so...

 

EDIT:- the romors state it will be next announced friday as that will be 40 years exactly since the 8086 launched

No, its because cooler has some pre-applied. If you mess up installation first time, then you need more. AIOs come with pre-applied when most air coolers come with small tube.

Then i will do that! Just need to save up little more money for the bench and chair so i get everything at the same time!

If you'll buy the parts in 1-2 months, you should ask then, not now. The available parts change, as do the prices.

Yeah, but the recommendations will vary depending on what's available and the prices. Maximum 1-2 weeks before the purchase is roughly when the parts choice should be finalised, imo.

Honestly I would get the tube if it comes preapplied. I don't have super fine motor skills so I tend to mess up on mounting heat sinks properly. I mean it usually functions but temps are about 5 degrees hotter than they should be until I get it right. Had to mount my best sink 4 times last time
