Hi, I'm building a new gaming pc soon and it would be my second time so I have some questions.
Here is the list of the new reg:
Mboard: MSI z370 sli plus
CPU: i7 8700k
Ram: vengeance ddr4 16gb 3200
GPU: gtx1080ti
Hard drive: Samsung 960 Evo
Case: http://

I own a Roswell gold 1000 watts PSU which I bought 3 years ago, so do I have to change the PSU?
I also have a 360mm radiator, I don't know if it would fit the new case I couldn't find anything about it in Google.

Hi,
You will experience no problems with the radiator you have, in the name of the PC case on newegg it states that the PC case supports up to 360mm for radiators. However, can I suggest that you change the case for this build? The case you have chose is a niche market sort of case and for that amount of money, there is better out there. A case I personally recommend is the corsair 750D. This case has full compatability with all of your components and will look aesthetically pleasing as well. I would also recommend upgrading the power supply so there is some good clean energy being cycled through this build. I recommend the Corsair rm750x or the rm650x power supply for this build.

Feel free to list in detail your full build for me to...

Feel free to list in detail your full build for me to look through and check if there is any compatibility issues and potential for improvement? Awesome rig so far though man :)

Hope this helps,

The inforamtion is right there on the page you linked, a 360 rad fits to the front and to the top as well:
"Cooling System:
Front: 240/360 mm water-cooling, 120mm fan*3 140mm fan *2
Rear: 120 mm water-cooling, 120mm fan*1
Top: 240 mm/360mm water cooling, 120mm fan*3, 140mm fan*2 "

1000W PSU will work fine, you can keep that.

Thanks for the answer guys regarding the case I was having a hard time to find a good one since I didn't understand which one would be a good fit so I chose a flashy case on a whim :p
But I would like to get a case which include rgb lights and my price range for the case is 180$ would you know about another good case with RGB for that price?

Well I thought that I've put the whole build what did I miss? And yeah it's awesome and a wallet killer at the same time lol, but I grew tired of the low framerates I currently have.

I already got the GPU and motherboard I'll get the rest by next month and I'm planning on getting another gtx 1080 ti in the future for sli so what PSU would be best and would this m.2 fit the motherboard?

Yes, your motherboard supports the M.2 2280 form factor. For two 1080 ti
You are going to need 850W for SLI or more if you also overclock.
