Adjusted build after advice

[mopman94]

Hi, this is a follow up from this thread: 

After getting some advice I have adjusted my build and just wanted some final feedback, I'm going to order the parts this evening.

Only thing to note is I am on the fence about the CPU cooler. I want the build to have a e s t h e t i c as it will be on show in my gaming room, but at this stage thats about it as I won't be overclocking to begin with so I may decide to go without. Stock coolers just look really ugly.

Looks fine to me

Seems decent to me. Should look good too.

Just watched a video on the case, turns out that cooler won't really fit so I am going to leave out the cooler for now and just use a stock one and when I want to OC I will buy a better cooler then.

Stock AMD cooler is great, you'll probably want to upgrade to a decent air cooler to overclock if there's trouble with a radiator.

Why spend £130 on a cooler if you are not overclocking ?

 

This would be a better way to go. Drop the AIO for a good air cooler and slap an 8 core in with the savings.
