Hey guys, I ordered a new system a couple of days ago and i am now just waiting (Oh sweet longing) and i'd like your thoughts on possible upgrades down the line..
Case: Fractal Design Define R3 Black Pearl
Mobo: ASUS P8Z68-V/GEN3
CPU: Intel Core™ i5 Quad Processor i5-2500K
RAM: Corsair Vengeance™ DDR3 1600MHz 8GB CL9 (8 gb, 4x2)
SSD: Corsair SSD Force Series 3, 60GB, SATA 6 Gb/s
HDD: Western Digital Caviar® Green™ 1TB SATA 6Gb/s
PSU: Corsair TX V2 650W PSU
Gfx: XFX Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 "Dual Fan"
Now, for the "Immediate" upgrades, i'm planning on getting a CPU cooler, Any suggestions that could fit my case with Corsair vengeance ram? Was considering the Noctua NH-D14 but i'm not really sure it fits over the ram
A bit further down the line I'm gonna upgrade the Case, graphics card maybe dabble in some Watercooling.
Thanks in advance guys!
