Hi,
I'm looking into building my new PC. It'll be the second PC I've built and the first has had occasional cooling issues. I've read a few guides about cooling, like the one on Tom's hardware, but I still have one question that I haven't found an answer for.
Should you choose a case to fit fans to or should you choose fans to fit a case? If it's the latter, is it worth acquiring the case and then acquiring fans after getting hands on with the case and other components?
I don't have either a case or fans in mind but from the guides I'd expect that I should have a negative pressure setup.
Decided upon components below:
CPU - i7-5930K
GFX - GTX-980
mobo - asrock x99 extreme4
HDD - Seagate 2TB Barracuda Internal Hard Drive
SSD - Kingston SSDNow V300 Series SV300S3D7
RAM - 1x8GB DDR4
PSU - once cooling is decided
Thanks,
Arrzarr
