I may upgrade later to an i5 4690K, but for now, all the games I play run fine on this CPU, and I save $150 (for the CPU cooler). Also, the case looks great: it is the best value mITX water cooling case (it has Primo cable management abilities). There are water cooling cases like the Thermaltake Core X1, but those are $35 more expensive and look worse.
Any thoughts on what GPU I should pick? The case can hold 13" GPUs unmodified.
Also, any advice on good AIO water coolers that will look good in this case? I'm thinking I should switch because the one I picked is very hard to find on the Internet. I also want good looks and good warranty for it.
