Mini ITX build feedback

[231600_1454181735]

Goodevening/morning or afternoon

 

After my first post about deciding whether to build a desktop or use my laptop as one I put together a draft of my potential build. And would like to get some feedback since most of you have more knowledge than me.

 

the part im not sure about is mostly the cpu cooler. Since I have no experience with this one, and an itx case is rather small.

 

Some information about the build:

is going to be used mainly for gaming with currently 1 monitor (1080p) but upgrading to an extra 144hz 1080/1440p in the near future.

 

Let me hear your thoughts!

Build looks good. I think the H100i V2 is a slightly better cpu cooler, but the X52 is fine. I would go with the less expensive of the two.

Build looks fine, but I personally recommend NOT building an ITX system, they just don't give you too many upgrade options.

Thank you, why would you choose the h100i V2 over the kraken x52? The h100i is priced at 105€ So its cheaper. Personally really like the aesthetics of the x52 since its so visible in this case.

The reason I prefer an ITX build is, (correct me if im wrong) I think I can use this build for quite some years considering I dont do performance-heavy tasks. And dont expext more than 60fps in AAA games only in games such as cs go. When talking about upgrade options do u mean things like GPU size which can cause problems?

If you favor the aesthetics of the X52 and are willing to pay the price, there is no reason to choose the H100i V2. As https://www.gamersnexus.net/hwreviews/2662-nzxt-kraken-x52-x62-x42-review-and-benchmarks-noise-temp/page-4 illustrates performance of the two coolers is quite similar.
