i have bought some parts for my pc but i wanted to know if the r1 universal is a good cooler, because where i live all good aio coolers are sold out and i dont want any liquid cooler to leak and destroy the components also how far i can overclock my 7700k with the r1 universal?

Great build, you should be able to get a good overclock with that cooler it's pretty top rated. Good luck!

sizzling · May 19, 2017

Very good build. I am not familiar with that cooler but AIO are usually no better than a good air cooler

Chugalug_ · May 19, 2017

RAM is over the top and is generally poorly priced. Mobo is also overkill, as is the CPU cooler.
You only need something like the Mugen 5 or Cryorig H5 for the i7 at most.
What retailers are you using?
What monitor do you have?
What's your budget in local currency?

Not a good value list.
We still need a local retailer and budget in local currency.
Just to prove a point though, you can get far better performance for the money than what has been posted above in the same price range.

ohh well the retailer would be http://www.pakdukaan.com/
and pc parts here normally cost 20% extra its stupid but it is what it is and i forgot to mention i do have a samsung 850 evo vnand 500gbs ssd and the budget would be $1700 or less and in local currency that would be 170,000rs

Chugalug_ · May 19, 2017

Sure thing, i'll make a list.

I assume you need monitor included?

herdleys · May 19, 2017

i already have the monitorbut any suggestions would be appreciated

Small problem, the site only has Thermaltake power supplies, and only Zotac GPUs, is there anywhere else you can buy from?

herdleys · May 19, 2017

http://www.industech.pk/
and im gonna get the gpu from amazon or newegg

Chugalug_ · May 19, 2017

What monitor do you already have?
Newegg is generally alright for shipping, some cards have high GST taxes though.

Chugalug_ · May 19, 2017

Wait for the case to come back in.
If buying the GPU from newegg you should get it quite a bit cheaper, bringing you below budget.

Look at the top right side of this page and ask for a quote on this site, it's an extremely reputable site which ships items from the US to other countries: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125955&cm_re=GTX_1080_Ti-_-14-125-955-_-Product
http://www.bigapplebuddy.com/buy-from-the-usa-newegg-online-store-international-shipping/

If the cost ends up higher than local prices, just save up and get what I posted.
Your monitor should be at least 1080p 144hz or 1440p/4k in order to fully take advantage of the GPU.

Chugalug_ · May 19, 2017

I don't believe amazon ships to pakistan, but here's the GPU from there as well, it's the same card: https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GeForce-GAMING-Graphic-N108TGAMINGOC-11GD/dp/B06XXJMDTM/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1495200495&sr=1-3&keywords=GTX+1080+Ti

You're in pakistan, stop making lists in USD, GST and shipping will kill you on pricing.
Not even possible on 90% of items.
Get the list I posted previously, why on earth did you make another thread?

what do you think of my build?
