just wanna check if the follow speces are ok,and got any compability issues?

Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming K6+ ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor

CPU Cooler : CRYORIG R1 Ultimate 76.0 CFM CPU Cooler

GP: Zotac GeForce GTX 1070 8GB AMP! Edition Video Card

HDD: OCZ TRION 150 480GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

RAM: GskillRipJaws 2666 mhz CL 15 8GB x2

PSU: EVGA 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

can advice a casing with transparent viewing pane at the side and can add fans at the top? would i need a full ATX tower case? i dun think so right? only issue i have is that the Zotac Card is very long...

thanks :)

Looks good to go if you are into overclocking.

If not u can save going to b150 and i5 6500 instead.

i got a 750W PSU because i am considering getting a 2nd piece of 1070 when the price drop for SLI..

can check with you what is the issues with doing SLI on Palit card?

for case, i think maybe cheaper is better? coz it is a container for the parts only :s13::s22:

seems ok ....

if you can get good pricing then ok , especially the ram and powersupply .... should cross compare with amazon usa pricing


if the PSU got ECO mode switch , then turn it off ....
zero airflow is unhealthy for capacitors , heat buildup will not fail it immediately but will degrade the lifespan

would prefer a metal case.. all my previous case are metal case.. Mid-tower is enough already right?

would i need to watch out for whether my case can fit the CRYORIG R1 Ultimate 76.0 CFM CPU Cooler?

sorry paiseh again :o

i mean the windows is a plasitc, but case will be metal case but not sure full metal or some parts is plastic (esp front panel and top panel will be slightly plasitc.)

and yes some case max 150/160 depends on which case and you are better getting a 170/180mm to have some space.

Dimension ( with fan ) L142.4 mm x W140 mm x H168.3 mm

ohh.. then its ok!! :)

trying to see if i can find a case with top mesh (to allow meto put fan), and clear window panel at the side and also a slot to put a side fan..

then the back will have 1 or 2 exhaust fan slot and 1 air intake fan slot at the front of casing.. is it too much to put so many fans? :s13:

Idk why no one pointed this out, but afaik ripjaws ram height is 40mm, while R1 Ultimate has a RAM height limit of 30~35mm.
Advise you to look toward either getting low profile RAM, or switching to R1 Universal instead.

Back usually has 1 exhaust, and 2 intakes at front for most casings.
Side fan with side window is uncommon amongst cases
Also, you will usually get diminishing marginal benefit as you increase the number of fans (and a decent casing fan usually costs about ~$20-40).
3-4 fans is usually the sweet spot for most

You can consider Fractal Design Define R5, within your budget and has 2 inbuilt fans +1 extra fan (current promo), then get an extra fan as bottom intake.

Yeah, as post #14 mentioned, ram height might be an issue with air coolers.
If the gskill doesn't fit, Corsair vengeance lpx or kingston hyper x or ram without heatsink will do.

Ok! Will make the changes to the ram! Thanks for pointing it out to me!

Paiseh ah.. Not enough means the casing cannot fit the parts?

Ok! Will check the ram height issue and take a look at the casing too! Thanks alot for the advice!
