Case: Arc Midi R2
CPU: AMD FX-8350
Motherboard: Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
RAM: G-Skill X Series Ripjaws 2x8GB 1866 Mhz
Room temperature: Between 20-25 Celcius. My room is hotter when it's hotter outside, and cooler when it's cooler outside, as it's right on top of the uninsulated garage with the sun facing them in the evenings.
I've still got the FX-8350 stock cooler on. The only reason that I'm holding off on installing the NH-D14 right now, is because during the summer when it's 30-35 degrees Celcius outside, it's usually a little bit hotter in my room during the day time. This has me seriously considering water-cooling (or whatever else), which is where I need all your help!
My biggest priority is cooling effectiveness, with quietness being the second priority. This system will be running 24/7, and will be used for day-trading as well as gaming. I also intend to OC. How far I OC depends on temperatures. Duh, I guess.
The NH-D14 is currently in the box, and the Glacer 240L seems to be an awesome AIO water-cooler. I especially like the Glacer because of its potential to expand/upgrade, and the lack of maintenance for at least a few years. Being a total noob at this (this is my first ever build), the least maintenance required, the better!
If any more information is required, just ask! Thanks for reading!
