Why not a 2600 and just OC the difference?

I would get a nice air cooler over a 120mm AIO, they perform much better.

Performance wise? 200MHz base clock

Cost wise? $60

Overclock ability? Minimal at best

 

The 2600X does come with a better stock cooler but if you're replacing that then it's not worth it.

This is what I personally would go with

And if you wanted an m.2 drive instead, I would go with the one below.

If you go with the above, you will be saving money on the CPU, just OC it yourself to get better perf.

Better cooler, I have this one myself and it is a brilliant cooler on my 1700 OCed to 3.8Ghz all cores... I did have it higher, and it coped very well, I just prefer to downclock a little if I don't need the extra perf all the time.

Bigger SSD for only $7 or so more... bigger HDD too.

Cheaper RAM and still good.

Cheaper mobo, that is a brilliant mobo for OCing going by reviews I have seen.
