I would split your 4TB drive in half. What happens if the drive fails after 6 months? Manufacturer defects do exist. Having all your storage eggs in one basket is dangerous. I'd op for 2 2TB drives.

First of all thnxs 4 taking ur time to do such an indeep research.

CPU Cooler: Fractal Design - Kelvin S36 62.4 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
I have never heard of that CPU cooler before its an interesting choice and I will consider it.

Motherboard: MSI - Z370 GAMING PRO CARBON ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
That was my second choice but I never had an MSI Board before and i can handle the Asus UEFI better that was the only reason to pick the Asus one since i know how to overclock an Asus Board. The MSI is 100 Euros cheapper. Maybe ur right.

Video Card: Zotac - GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB AMP Edition Video Card
That was my thrid choice. I finally choose the water cooled one cause im moving in 6 Months to south America to a city with 88 °F all year and im not sure if i could expirience thermal throttling because of that.

i think a good ventilated case with that 360 aio pulling air in from the front and a 120mm fan(move the preinstalled front to the bottom) in the bottom and having 2 fans in the top and a rear one for exhaust will solve any temp issues. u can still have a negative pressure in the case with 4 intake and 3 exhaust by having the aio work in about 700 rpm? the 360 aio is oversized for the 8700k and will keep it nice n cool even when running at 700 rpm.

fractal design is a niche enthusiast company. its quite new compared to others but has already proved its worth with many amazing products. just sad that meshify c doesnt have a vertical gpu mount feature :/

with the side tempered panel in the meshify c and those msi mystic aura in mobo, blue backlight in cpu block, rgb ram, spectra lightning in gpu and top rgb fans, ur build will look dope :love:
