If you want to keep fan speeds very low to keep the PC basically as quiet and cool as possible, I recommend getting a 360 aio and turning fans way down. If you don't plan to overclock at all or just to dabble in it, the 240 aio should be perfectly fine, temp wise with stock clocks. If you plan on learning to overclock the CPU, considering it's a K skew and is fully unlocked, it can gain you a decent bit of performance overhead vs it's stock speeds.įor that I'd recommend a 360mm aio or at minimum, a 280 because Intel 12th gen (12x00k) runs fairly hot compared to the previous couple of generations, due to it's hybrid design and it's higher power draw. I would mention though, that a 280 or 360 be swapped in for the 240 as my 12600k at only 5.0 all core maxes out my 240 so the 12700k would definitely be hot with that rad. I would typically recommend people the 4000(~) and ask them if they ever have plans on custom loops or modding and if they do, then I recommend them the 5000(~).Īlso, OP listed a 240, not a 360 so the 4000D would still be fine. While yes, it'd be difficult without selecting the right rad size, the 4000D can technically fit a 360 at the top, but it depends on ram+vrm heatsink heights. Ok the other hand, the 5000D does have tons of space for lots of expandability, yet without extra hardware to fill it out, it will look quite empty.Īlso, your partially incorrect about top rad clearance. With the OP current part selection, the 4000D sounds like it'd be perfectly fine with a bit of space to spare. But yes, the 7000D is technically the "big" one. | Generated by ( ) 21:45 EDT-0400 |īy comparison, the 5000D is actually bigger than average, kinda like the Phanteks P500. | *Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts* | The only parts I have not solidified are the cpu cooler, case, and extra case fans.Įdit: I've overwhelmed by all the great input and feedback. I would like to get some input on which case would fit my build best? My current build is below. I don't want to have a huge case with a bunch of empty space. I would like to have the build be as simple and easy as possible being that its my first so I was leaning towards the 5000D for the extra space but I'm not sure if that's overkill or not. Being that this is my first build and I'm a complete noob, I'm not quite sure which one fits my build best. I am novice PC builder (this is my first) and I've seen some things about the 4000D not having enough space with the liquid cooler and RAM, while others say it is fine. I am torn between the 4000D and 5000D airflow cases.
