Hello everyone. I am getting set to build a new 3770K gaming rig and could use some advice about the cooling. Quick list of parts I will be using.
Case: Cooler Master Storm Trooper (SGC-5000-KKN1)
MB: ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
CPU: i7 3770K
Memory: G Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2X4GB)
PS: CORSAIR TX Series CMPSU-750TX 750W
HD Main: Intel 520 Series Cherryville SSDSC2CW480A3K5 2.5" 480GB (SSD)
HD Data: Western Digital WD Black WD1001FALS 1TB 7200 RPM
Video: MSI N670 PE 2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 670
I was planning to buy the new NZXT Kraken X60 for the cooler. However after receiving the Extreme 4 MB I see it has holes for a 775 cooler which would allow me to reuse my Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme in a push/pull fan configuration.
Do you all think I can get much better temps from the Kraken or will the Ultra 120 work just as well? I plan to OC as far as I can while maintaining reasonable voltage and temps. Thanks.
