Brought your costs back under $4k

 

The 212 Evo is a more effective cooling solution. The Kryonaut is a higher conductance paste. The fans are now higher airflow and lower cost with individual controlers. The WD Black 1 TB is $100 less costly and benches within single digit percent of your prior choice. Headset has better speakers and microphone and still has active noise canceling. Returned build to newer board I linked prior as it decreases quantity of components inside case meaning that cooling solutions will be less obstructed than with the wifi card and thus be more effective. What the 370 supports the 470 board will support. Selected a 1080 TI at a lower price point that will Overclock just as well with a slightly better fan arrangement and sturdier sleeve. Keyboard is massively less expensive still customizable RGB and has MX Cherries as opposed to Speed Silvers.

Not bad, but what about a wifi solution because I like to be able to use wifi on my pc in case (pun intended) I don't have access to ethernet and as well as having a way to use a cd drive on the pc that can rewrite DVDs? As well I also want to have Bitdefender total for at least 2 years, vegas pro, and dual (good monitors that are nvida compatible) monitor setup? Using both my setup and a low-cost setup? (sorry if I'm wasting time here, I don't mean to do that)

Motherboard in my selection has WiFi baked in so you will be able to use all wifi aside from the new 802.11 a/d standard which is like ... 2-3 months old? And wasn't supported by the add in card you selected anyways. For a Disc drive... lemme look...

 

Okay decreased cost changing case yet again, increased airflow with non-rgb louder fans with even more airflow than the 140mm fans of the last iteration. included a Blu-Ray RW drive.

Okay am done on this one for the night. Maybe more tomorrow.

[Sernefarian]

Just so I can ponder on it what range do you mean with "Low Cost Setup?" this is a huge question because... well... your builds weigh in on the massively expensive end when you go hog wild on them.

[Sernefarian]

... couldn't help it. here is a build at close to 1/3rd the cost

The lowest cost that I can get without sacrificing anything super important

[CalebOWolf]

and pretty good overall Id has to say here as well. I mean yeah sure not everything isn't compatible but so what there has to be some sort of limitations to everything

[CalebOWolf]

now what about monitor choices for my first rig with the updated items link and has compatibility with everything else on the build to take advantage plus a good wifi or ethernet solution.

[CalebOWolf]

looks great so far but yeah nothing can all be compatible with each other, some things don't like certain items and vice versa. Now what about a solution to my networking solution and as well a low power cost efficient builds as well

[CalebOWolf]

(oops internet connection bugged on me)

[CoreCombat]

Dude, who pays for windows 10? Go to ebay and grab a $5 keys or get one for $14 from scdkeys.com

Nah I would rather be official than have to be scammed on eBay and get infected with a virus on my new pc

[CalebOWolf]

Oh and @Sernefarian I did switch out the MB and I will Indeed confirm that it will support everything that I can use with the other board as well, so I will switch those out but keep the other one in a parts list.

 

Heres the new build: Build

 

(I cannot get in contact with GIGABYTE about the motherboard differences and I still cannot decide which one to chose)

 

As well the case needs to be fixed, The BluRay Drive won't fit in my case.

[CalebOWolf]

So its been a while since I have updated my build and I have finally updated it so if you want to check them out then go look at the original post and let me know down here

 

(If anyone knows of a good and cool modern 2018 case that can fit an internal Blu-ray  drive then let me know. Or an external solution that can do the exact same thing)

 

PC Link: Link

Hey @Calebo5 so on the reason why I kept suggesting Thermal Grizzly's Kryonaut here are comparison benchmarks of various thermal compound solutions:

https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/thermal-paste-comparison,5108-9.html

 

Also here is a benchmark of the performance of your chosen heatsink: http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/gigabyte-atc700-aorus-cpu-cooler-review,8.html

 

Best as I am able to tell from those numbers on the CPU Cooler it does not give the performance that it should at it's price point. At that point you could move into water cooling with the Deepcool - CAPTAIN 240 EX 153.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler, and on top of that receive cooling performance like this:

Yeah but I dont want to have to maintain the water cooling type and plus I like the air way because all I do is put some thermal paste on, put it on, snap it on to the plastic piece that holds it in, and then plug it in so that it works without me having to to do anything with major or even any disassemble

[Sernefarian]

Rearranged your list and brought costs down while maintaining performance. Also included price on Vegas Pro 15 which bumped the price up $399.00

Okay. Then let me find a more cost effective Air Cooler for you.

[Guest]

What is this pc going to be used for ? As 64GB Ram is excessive for the majority of people.

[CalebOWolf]

thanks for this, cuz i want to stick with gigabyte, amd, and nvida but its hard to find the proper parts. (Can you also find a way to utilize the bluray drive or even have the exact same one but externally

Well the cooler on this is definitely not Gigabyte, but basically beats the brakes off the AORUS one you chose.

Then you only need 16GB Ram.
