Hello Tom's Hardware-type-folks, I need some advice on three simple things:
1) Will air-cooling cut it in this build? Or, do I need water-cooling?
2) What heatsink should I use for my processor? I've come up with this. Anything better for around $50? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103065
3) Anything else to cool my case? Does a GPU/Mobo cooler exist?
Build:
i7 2600k, overclocked to 4.2Ghz+
NZXT Phantom; 5-7 fans (depending on which can fit) all around the case
2x GTX 580 SLI
8GB RAM, (G.Skill 1600 Ripjaws) but I may want to upgrade to 16GB later and max out my RAM slots
ASUS Sabertooth P67 1155 mobo
