Hi, my rig is as below and i am looking at new casing and perhaps a new PSU if my current one is not recommended to use.
CPU and Mobo: i5 9400F, MSI B360M Mortar Titanium
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 2666 16GB kit
Storage 1: ADATA 1TB m2 NVMe SSD
Storage 2: SAMSUNG EVO 860 250GB SSD
Storage 3: HGST 2TB 7200 HDD
GFX: Gigabyte GTX1070
Case Fans: 2 x 120mm, 1 x 140mm (i hope to fit 6 fans in new case)
CPU Cooler: CM H103 (Hope to change to AIO like CM MasterLiquid ML120RS RGB)
The reason for me changing casing is my Jonsbo RM3 can only fit 3 fans. I wanna use a AIO 120 for my CPU and i was told by the shop staff that the AIO might not fit in due to the small space. The reason i wanna use AIO is i think the heat is pushed to the radiator and straight away expel out of the case thus reducing it flowing inside the case, increasing the internal temperature.
Secondly, i thought of changing to a bigger casing so that i can fit more fans . Im looking at either the Fractal Design S2 or Lian Li PC-O11 dynamic as these 2 can fit my table space and it comes with USB-C front ports. Or USB-C front ports is actually redundant.
Lastly, is there a need for me to change my PSU. My current PSU is Corsair TX650M (bought in 2012). I have use those online power calculator and my rig will draw max 500W. If need a new PSU, i'm looking at CM MasterWatt 650. Is CM PSUs recommended as i search online and seems like no one is recommending CM PSUs.
Thank you so much.
