Greetings! This is my first post in this site. I need some advice/pointers for this build and what else do I need.

CPU - AMD FX-8350

Motherboard - Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0

Memory - Corsair Vengeance 8gb 1866

Storage - WD Black 1TB

CPU Fan - Corsair H110i or CM Seidon 240

Video Card - undecided

What chassis is recommended for this build? How about the power supply? I'm not planning to overclock since I haven't tried. Graphics card is optional. I choose liquid cooling simply because I like it. :)

Any suggestion/advice is acceptable. Thank you!

Do you have a target budget in mind? I would add that I would prolly stay away from the h100i, I hear there are some quality control issues with that particular cooler. I got one DOA and while searching for a fix I found way to many people with the same problem. I would recommend the corsair 750D and the cooler master h110

The nice thing about the h110 is that it simply needs 3 mobo fan headers for the pump and 2 fans. The asus software will do a great job regulating the fan speeds to keep your noise levels low.

edited. h110i should be h100i

Thank you for the warning. The h110 is just a bit bigger than the h110i. And I hope it's better.
