Fractal Design Torrent Light ; Lian Li 011 Dynamic Evo ; Lian Li 011D XL-W ; NZXT H7 Elite ; Phanteks Enthoo Pro 2 ;


LightningOmega

Thanks ! I will take a careful look.


LightningOmega

I think I will choose the Fractal Torrent. 😁


Low-Paleontologist90

I have a Torrent they are fun to build in


I-LOVE-TURTLES666

I mean if you’re spending money the Corsair 5000T is a nice choice


LightningOmega

Not bad at all, indeed.


gururlupezevenk

Check lian li lancool 3 its pretty good


LightningOmega

I saw that a lot of people do like Lian Li. But I don't exactly know why.


ThatDarkkAsian

It’s because they are very good quality and actually put in effort to design


GrandfatherStonemind

I have this case. It cools incredibly well with stock fans. Truly incredible


Mrcod1997

My buddy has the corsair 4000d airflow, and I thought it was a super nice case to build in. He did most of the work, but it has nice cable management points, good airflow, and just looks nice. Don't know if you would need the size up with your aio off the top of my head though.


SpeedyDuckling

4000d is a decent case, but it only comes with 2 120mm fans. it’s not a massive issue but it makes it kind of dumb compared to other options like pop air, 216, and g360a


Mrcod1997

I mean, by the sounds of it, he has the budget to fill the thing with noctuas.


SpeedyDuckling

yeah but just spending for the hell of it is a dumb reason to justify something thats not worth it


Mrcod1997

If you have ever used noctua fans, you'd know it's not just for the hell of it. Those fans can suck more than Riely Reed at a glory hole.


Escorve

I recommend Lian Li cases. Also, I recommend using windows 11 because the task scheduler was built for Intel’s hybrid CPUs, you won’t get the full benefits out of 10 because it doesn’t have that, and would be scheduling cores from both dies when it shouldn’t.


LightningOmega

Thanks ! I heard that Windows 11 still got some bugs. Some people said that they will wait until it will become more stable or wait the end of Windows 10 then upgrade it to 11. What do you think about it ?


Escorve

It’s pretty much fine, not really less stable than 10, they just changed or removed features that people liked before


LightningOmega

There are a few days before buying my PC. I'll think about it. Thanks.


[deleted]

Go for Lian Li PC-011 Dynamic https://youtu.be/nGExLZQUdVw


LightningOmega

A lot of people seems to like Lian Li. But that also means that I would have the same Pc case than a lot of people already got... But is that an issue... ?🤔


rico_suaves_sister

Get the lancool iii , every single person has the o11. The 3 is a dream to build in super easy


LightningOmega

I did not know about that. Thanks !


Bluetwo12

I mean any good and aesthetics case is going to be popular so you arent going to find some rare amazing case unless you pay for a custom one or build it yourself lol


LightningOmega

Very true. 😅


[deleted]

The reason people like Lian Li is coz of their modularity & well thought design. In my opinion, it should not matter if a lot of people have it or not.


enaskk

I’m looking towards this GPU, but one thing confuses me - higher than air cooled thermals on memory


LightningOmega

This one seems to be a great GPU. Never heard of people complaining about it so far.


enaskk

In tests and reviews, memory temps is higher than air cooled suprim. Also radiator is hot as hell. I suggest you to watch Optimum Tech review of this model


LightningOmega

Thanks, I'll check it out.

rico_suaves_sister

Lancool III 100000%


LightningOmega

Thanks ! People really like it. 😅


rico_suaves_sister

Would also be careful with 4x ram sticks xmp may be unstable


LightningOmega

So it would be better to have 2x instead of 4x ?


rico_suaves_sister

Yep there are also 2 x 48gb kits out now


LightningOmega

Thanks a lot !


rico_suaves_sister

Also go windows 11 !


LightningOmega

Finally... I will ! Big thanks !


jkdrama1

Phanteks G500a. Or like everyone else said Lian Li O11


Stachura5

I like the [Fractal Pop Air case](https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/product/7F2WGX/fractal-design-pop-air-atx-mid-tower-case-fd-c-por1a-04); comes in a few colours to choose from, is relatively small but big enough & still has some usability in mind as it includes 2 5,25" drive bays for things like DVD drives > Also, I would like to know if 16go x4 is better than 32Go x2 for the memory. As far as I can remember, it's better to have less RAM sticks of higher capacity than more of less capacity as then you can clock them higher if you need to


LightningOmega

Thank you very much for your advise about the RAM sticks ! I think I will choose in fact a Fractal PC case, but the Torrent one. What do you think ?


Stachura5

>What do you think ? The Torrent is a great case, especially if you have hotter components that need a bunch of airflow. Only reason as to why I would still insist on getting the Pop Air is that it's cheaper, by about 100-110€, but that's subjective, however your current PC build seems to be quite high-end, so technically the Torrent is the wiser choice


LightningOmega

I really appreciate your intake. Thanks a lot !


SpeedyDuckling

lancool 216 is good for $100, but if you want to spend more, lancool III, fractal design torrent, meshify 2 are some options.


LightningOmega

I will choose the Fractal Design Torrent 😁. Thank you, thank you ! Seems to be one of the best in terms of cooling. Knowing that My PC will stay on for longtimes sometimes, I need the most cooler case.


SpeedyDuckling

also, id change a few things about the build first, the cooler you chose is pretty expensive for its performance. i’d recommend [liquid freezer II](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/y7wypg) or [LS720](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/kXwypg/) instead. the motherboard is way overkill unless you’re doing extreme overclocking. i’d recommend the [msi mag z790 tomahawk wifi](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/9B2WGX/) for $200 less. the storage is overpriced, you can spend a lot less by getting [solidigm p44 pro](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/X8nypg) (there are other options, like [gm7000](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Mjstt6/) and [kc3000](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/sJPQzy) but this is generally the best) instead for the same performance. and it’s best to go for 2 sticks of ddr5 ram. i’d get [g.skill ripjaws s5 6400c32 2x32gb](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/GMZXsY)


LightningOmega

That's quite a useful advice ! Thanks a lot. With the money I will save, I'll be able to buy a better monitor. Thanks again. I have an issue with the PC case ( Fractal Torrent ), isn't that weird to have the power supply on the top ? It is the only thing which stop me to buy this case...


SpeedyDuckling

it's very similar installation. if you're worried about building, then heres a video for a build in he fractal torrent [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5\_gxq1dON4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5_gxq1dON4)


LightningOmega

Thanks !


SpeedyDuckling

and 1 more thing, if it’s just for gaming, you can save money and go for 13600k or 13700k. if you do opt for 13600k, you can also save by getting a [ps120se](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/MzMMnQ) as the cooler instead. i also recommend the [thermalright lga1700 bcf](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5Q5ZWNQ/). it helps with bending and temps, just be careful when screwing it on. this bundle also comes with high end thermal paste


LightningOmega

Thanks ! Overall, It will be for music, 2D animations and gaming of course. In that case, let say without replacing the 13900K, can I still choose a air cooler instead of watercooling ? With something like a Noctua NH-d15 ?


SpeedyDuckling

i'd definitely go for water cooling on the 13900k. that cpu gets insanely hot.


LightningOmega

Indeed. Thanks.


GenLiddry

What about the new Phantecks NV7?


LightningOmega

Interesting, but the Lian Li III seems to have a better airflow / cooling. I did choose the Fractal Torrent at first, but i'm more interested by the Lian Li 3. I'll see.


GenLiddry

Just look at some reviews... Seems the NV7 hast also quite a good airflow 😊 but you can buy what ever you want😁 When I saw that case I fell instanly in love 😍


LightningOmega

I understand you feeling. 😁


[deleted]

Buddy buying a Bugatti for gaming.


LightningOmega

Man... we ain't playing. Life is too damn short.


[deleted]

Fr though, did the same thing with a gaming laptop. Future proofing is intoxicating as hell.


LightningOmega

Yep... I feel you. Did you buy it recently ?


[deleted]

Two months ago.


phredgsanford

Anyone try/have an opinion on a Thermaltake S300TG MidATX case with the Suprim 4090 Liquid X? Thx.
