Looking to build a rig for gaming, I'd like to stay under 2k USD. I've picked out just about everything I need except for cooling solutions. Is liquid cooling necessary/worth it? If so what are some good systems that would work with my setup? Also any critiques/advice about the build is always welcome, I haven't purchased anything yet.
