Hi All
As the title says,
for this part build-
http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/YNV9zy

Problem is the low clearance of the Corsair air 240 case (window up) (120mm)
Really looking for a cpu cooler that will work for a white build.
Budget not an issue.

Also, I've never really cared too much for cable management but lately I have. I'm looking a white cable set. I've seen a few online but would like input on which to get.

Not exactly familiar with cabling, but the CPU cooler will do good. It's not meant for overclocking, and you can't even overclock with the i5 4440 so you're good to go. It's a slight upgrade from the stock cooler.

I threw in a CPU cooler slightly better than the stock one because you can't overclock with a locked i5 and an H97 board. So no need for a beast cooler unless overclocking.

Hi.

I have the cpu, RAM, case & mobo already. The list I posted, and I should of said, is partly built. My bad.

So, you recommend that cpu cooler?

Any info on cabling?

Thanks and appropriated
