Hello. A month or so ago I made a thread here asking for build advice. It was very helpful and I nearly went ahead with the purchase but then decided to wait and see what people thought of the Kaby lake processors. I have now redone my build for that processor and need advice. Here is my current build:
I will be overclocking CPU, GPU, and RAM. My budget is 15-1700$ I would like general advice on improving my build as well as a few questions.
Build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/EliteKnightRamza/saved/nFkjXL
Case: How is the chosen case? It comes with two fans, an intake in the front and an outtake in the rear. Both 140mm. I intended to buy a 3rd 140mm to use on the top as an exhaust, which would give me including the PSU, a 140mm + 130mm intake and two 140mm outtakes. Is this enough for good airflow or should I choose a different case altogether?
Motherboard: I chose the Asus Prime line because their UEFI Bios looks nice. However, there's no reviews out for them because z270's are still too new. There's 4 boards (ignoring the micro board) that I can choose from in this line. I went with the cheapest one because I'm not concerned with aesthetics I just want to be able to overclock and have decent audio. Is the cheapest one okay for this, or am I sacrificing a lot by not getting a more expensive board on this line?
