I'm looking for the best online shops for pc components with the best black Friday prices or upcoming deals. I'm not rush to buy something now, i can wait one month to find the best prices. I prefer online shops from UK or any European country with cheap worldwide shipping because i'm from Cyprus. Thank you.
The pc components that i'm looking:
CPU: Intel i7-8700k
GPU: Asus strix 1070 or 1080
MOBO: Asus strix Z370-F or Z370-E
SSD: Samsung 960 EVO 250GB
COOLER: Corsair H115i
CASE: Corsair Obsidian 750D
RAM: G.skill or corsair 16gb with 3000 or 3200mhz
PSU: Any corsair 750w or 850w with 80+ platinum

Thanks my friend. Except the overclockers and amazon uk that i already know, The other sites have worldwide shipping right?
 
FYI the high end parts almost never see much of any price reduction (if any at all) on black friday/cyber monday. They know the people who want those parts are going to buy them anyways.

Since not looking for specific ram or specific GPU you probably find someone having a sale on one model or another, possibly a discount on the 960 evo, doubtful on mobo, aio cooler or psu, might get lucky on the CPU.

FYI those closed loop aio coolers really dont give you much of any increased cooling over even a $35 air cooler. Then they have to be replaced every 3-5 years due to coolant evaporation and then there is always the leak risk. I weighed heavily on getting one for my ryzen setup but in the end there was not really any pro's (besides aesthetics), but plenty of cons.

So its better to get air cooler like Noctua NH-D15 ? Because i want to overclock the cpu and gpu.

Yeah my D14 is still running strong after 4 years of pretty heavy use, and Noctua even gives you brackets for new platforms. I'm using it on AM4 right now with no problems.

That's usually a typical upgrade cycle. You can use some parts like coolers and hard drives well beyond that lifespan.

That's a single tower / 140mm fan cooler. The D15 is a dual tower / 140mm fan x 2 cooler. Either one is still one of the best choices you can go with for the 8700K.
 


It is a liquid with heat being applied to it. Over time it is going to evaporate.
As enough liquid evaporates it is going to reduce cooling ability.
Eventually enough will evaporate that it cant maintain proper pressure for the pump and the pump will ultimately die.

Since AIO is a closed system and cant be "topped off" then eventually you going to have to replace it when it either lets your temps get to high or the pump fails.
