Hi guys.

Just wondering if anyone knew whether these parts would be compatible with the NZXT Phantom 530.

- Gigabyte GA-Z170MX-Gaming-5 Intel Z170 S 1151 DDR4 mATX Motherboard

- Core i7 6700K Processor (4 GHz, 4 Core, 8 Threads, 8 MB cache, LGA1151 Socket Box)

- Asus DVD rewriter drive

- WD Blue WD20EZRZ Desktop Internal Hard Drive (SATA, 6 GB/sec, 2 TB, 64 MB, 3.5 inch)

- Samsung 2.5 inch 250 GB 850 EVO Solid State Drive

- EVGA SuperNOVA 1000W 80 Plus Modular Gold Power Supply

- G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series F4-2800C15Q-32GVR 32 GB (8 GBx4) DDR4 2800 MHz C15 1.25 V Memory Kit - Blazing Red

- ASUS Strix GTX 980 Ti Gaming Nvidia GeForce Graphics Card

- Corsair CO-9050009-WW Air Series AF140 Quiet Edition 140mm Low Noise High Airflow Fan Single Pack


(Not sure what CPU cooler to get, I've looked at a few... Any tips/suggestions/whether they'd fit etc would be greatly appreciated)

- Cooler Master RR-V8VC-16PR-R2 V8 Ver.2 "Ultra High Performance, 8 Direct contact heatpipes, Vapour Chamber, Universal CPU Cooler" Black with Red LED £68

- Cooler Master RR-V8VC-16PR-R1 V8 Ultra High performance, 8 Vapour Chamber Direct contact heatpipes, universal CPU Cooler, Black with Red LED £58

Any other ideas?

So if you guys could let me know if this would fit in the NZXT Phantom 530 I would be eternally grateful! And if you could suggest a compatible CPU cooler too, I would also be extremely grateful!

Thanks a lot,

Matt!

Yes, but without pivot fan (the 980 Ti is 305 mm long). The CM V8 will work fine. Also, I'm 100% sure the V8 will fit on the motherboard, I would use Kraken x61 or Hyper 212x however...

Also I would grab the i5 6500 instead of the i7 if not for multitasking or 3d rendering/video editing. There are unlocked BCLK bios versions. Use WD Black instead of Blue, HGST (Hitachi) are good too. Would pick the 1000 P2 instead of G2. Would pick the NZXT Source 530 or Switch 810 instead (awyeah). The 530

Phantom 530 GPU lenght: VGA Card 282mm (With Cage & Pivot Fan), 310mm (With Cage), 444mm (Without Cage)
Asus size: 12 " x 6 " x 1.57 " inches

CM's V8:
Dimensions (LxWxH) 154 x 149.8 x 166.5mm (6.1 x 5.9 x 6.6 in)
Heat Sink Dimensions (LxWxH) 154...
