Jw if the asthetics are worth it and have a couple of questions

1) is there that much of a difference between the cpu coolers as far as cooling goes
2) should I opt for a blower type of gpu
3) with rumors of a 1070ti coming as soon as mid-late October should I just wait for that?
4) if I'm currently only playing non that demanding of games but want to be able to play future games so should I just get a 1060? Or might as well invest in something better now?

All I can think of for now, any advice or input is appreciated plz and thx as always


1. As far as cooling, not really. But the kraken looks amazing, highly recommend using a push pull setup on it (with 4 total fans) or else cooling is actually pretty lackluster for an overclocked chip.
2. not needed.
3. i would only recommend waiting for big gaps of change. e.g. new architecture that offers much greater performance per dollar. this is not that, so i wouldn't wait.
4. Buy the best you can afford now. there is little to be gained by spending less if you can afford more only to upgrade later. Id get the 1070 if i wasnt trying to save the money. otherwise the 1060 is still a great card for your resolution.

my 2 cents.

check out the premium tt aio instead of the x52
cools better, more silent, also better software, patent for rgb etc.

https://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/8301/thermaltake-floe-riing-360-tt-premium-cpu-cooler-review/index6.html

these came out recently, generally the newer stuff are better than what already exsists in the market as they try to improve to compete.
i got the 360 rad myself, and it's silent. the loudest fan in my build is the single mlpro120 and they're not that loud either. It's just that the bequiet wings 3 and the TT premium fans are more quiet.

it's a new product, ill check the measurements for that case. It just didnt verify on pcpartpicker. It should be able to fit, never worked with that case before. However it shows that x52 fits in that case and its measurements is: 275 x 123 x 30mm

while the premium tt is Dimension:240 x 120 x 27 mm so it should fit

however, if you dont wanna risk it just get the x52

Ya idk I think I would like to but if not verified idk if I'd want to risk it
But we'll see how I feel before I order everything

I did some research and the difference of the tt aio and the case would be a little more than an inch so I don't think there's a way to fit that in :/
And I been looking at some reviews on the Kraken on YouTube and they weren't that great... Thinking about combining the two builds and going with the noctua cooler..? Unless I just go with the 100iv2? Or just Yolo that and go with the Kraken anyway?

I do prefer corsair h100i as well.
If you can live with the noctua cooler look it will still be the best option for the price.

case measurement for radiator clearance : Space of Radiator 300mm x 80mm x 120mm http://www.lian-li.com/en/dt_portfolio/pc-q37/

H100i v2 measurements : Radiator dimensions: 276mm x 125mm x 30mm
x52 : Dimensions Radiator: 275 x 123 x 30mm

ttpremium 240 x 120 x 27 mm

if the above AIO's can fit the case, i dont see why the TT can't as it's smaller than the two above. Perhaps i'd be more worried it's cuz its slightly smaller.

All these AIO's come from the same supplier btw, so it's matter of brand and preference. Though i find the 100i the most popular but also performs worse and is louder. However, the nxzt aio's aren't that much better either and their software is shit. x52 seems to suite your asthetics taste more though so i'd get the x52 over the h100i.
I'd look at ekwb if you want quality stuff
noctua coolers are great, but ruins ur build asthetics as it's chunky and the silver/brown chunk ruins the looks. If you don't mind that then sure

Louder in terms of what? They have similar pumps, and fans are RPM so they can be controlled for ever noise level you want.
