prolemtech megahalms revb is a good cooler and its cheap it does not come with fans tho.

[adicool96]

ok a question just popped into my miind will the fenrir fit into the cosmos without removing the side 200mm fan.

 

[siravarice]

Titan Fenrir is really good and only 29 quid!

Yep the fenrir will fit, i was planning on getting one for my e8600 so i had the tower in bits with a ruler making sure it was going to fit under the fan.

just IMO, i would rather get a few of 5870s because eyefinity is supposed to be well worth it... however, tri sli gtx480s is NEVER going to be bad.

 

[adicool96]

Okay an update after many days i finally received my logitech G9x and razer destructor mat.My exams are ending this week so hopefully ill be able to post pics of the components and assembly by the end of this week.

P.S.:I ordered a coolermaster ATCS 840

 

[adicool96]

Ok major update just bought all my parts yay.Havent got to installing it yet.My dad's ordered me to read all the manuals and installation for atleast a week. And also i upgrade to Core i7 980x processor.On the downside i just found out they dont sell silverstone striders and asus engtx480 in dubai and hence got a thermaltake toughpower 1500w and a gigabyte gtx 480.Gonna be posting pics in a day or so.

Your dad is wise, however there are some things manuals won't cover. For example the biggest cause of component death in a build (if you have never done one before) is putting a brass mounting post for the case where it shouldn't be and then putting the motherboard in on it.

Just be careful.
