Difference between SSD and 2.M SSD

[keynes]

If you are not prepare to take the risk of having a liquid cooler you shouldn't overclock then. Won't provide any improvement gaming wise and it could lead to instability issues. I doubt you will experience any issues with a corsair cooler though.

I just love the look of the liquid cooling compared to the hyper 212, it looks tidy and leaves a lot of space.

I think it is up to you now, you have plenty of information to make an informed decision. I got the h80i and never experienced an issue.

Water cooling takes up more space in a way as it uses case fan slots, meaning less airflow in the case. If you don't want to take the risk then don't get the liquid cooler basically. There isn't really a need to overclock the i7, it'll just produce more heat and could be unstable. I would stick with an air cooler and not bother overclocking, but it's up to you at the end of the day

Would it be worth getting the h80i or even lower if i mainly want it to look good.. i know this.might sound stupid but i like thingd looking good!

It is really up to you, for aesthetics reasons I personally wouldn't bother.

I wouldn't spend that much money on something you'd hardly see, that money could be spent on something better really...

Also, the H80i Is very thick, The H100i or H55i look a lot better as they're way thinner. In my opinion the H80i Is the ugliest

Thank you guys for help! I will just go with the Hyper 212 EVO

Means a lot

i7 4790k gone!?

Just the other day i was able to pick the i7 4790k to my built and now its gone!? There is only the 4790 and the old 4770k!?

Anyone has any information on that? I really wanted the 4790k!

 

[keynes]

You need to contact PCS directly.

 

[mantadog]

I suspect the 4790k is an extremely popular chip at the moment so stock is probably in short supply. Unless you need to order right now it will probably be back in stock before long, if you need an etc you could call the call centre as they will have a better idea.

I dont want to spam the forum with more threads so i will ask here.

Is there a big difference between the WD Caviar black hard drive and the Sata III (both 2TB), if o what is the difference?

 

[keynes]

Sagat?like in street fighter?

 

[mantadog]

The caviar black will be a faster drive, how much faster very much depends on the situation.

If you are running your OS from the 2TB drive and not a stand alone SSD then the caviar black is a good idea. The 2TB 'generic' will be fine for storage but you really want the OS to be installed on the fastest possible drive.

 

[VenatoS]

My OS will be on a 120GB SSD Kingston Hyper 3K SSD. I'm not sure if my 2nd "Storage" drive should be the standard sata III or the WD Caviar Black?

Caviar black is faster, considering how much you are spending on your system I wouldn't skimp on the hard drive.

 

[steaky360]

Depends on what you're using it for (as said above). If gaming for example, a faster HDD would help with load times etc. If used for storage of movies/music etc. then a standard HDD will be fine.

 

[VenatoS]

Thank you for the advice, I'm going to go with the Caviar Black then since i will be using for gaming mainly + editing. Just making sure but is there going to be a big difference that i would notice between having the standard and the WD caviar black?

 

[mantadog]

You would certainly notice if you set them up side by side and launched apps/games/file at the same time. However it would only be a couple of seconds so I highly doubt you would notice it as much as you will from SSD to HDD. It is certainly faster than a 'generic' drive though. I'm not familiar with your build, but if you are spending cash on it then the caviar black is probably worth it. You wont fit many games/applications on a 120Gb SSD so a faster 2nd drive might be a decent idea.

 

[VenatoS]

I'm hoping this set up will run EVERY game at 1080p with the highest possible settings.
