Is this rig okay would you change anything

It would be mainly used for 3d work, animation using Cinema4d and Zbrush, a few games as well.

Any advice would be great,

Im hoping i can use my TFT screen and keyboard etc which i already have from an old compaq (for now)

Seems like a very solid spec. I would stick with the enforcer case. I would also get te £5 warrenty

 

[mantadog]

Watercooling is worth the upgrade in my opinion, apart from that you look like you have it specced fairly well.

 

[NMEBowen]

i dont agree mantadog the titan will be fine for cpu cooling even if your overclocking and without the risk of total destruction a few years down the line when the water cooler packs in. Most air coolers can keep up with cpu cooling now days the only reason most use watercooling is for gpu`s recently ive looked at replacing my coolit eco with a air cooler and many say that air coolers are equaly as good as closed loop water cooling without the risk.

 

[mantadog]

I see what you are saying, and i can't really argue with it. If your watercooling decides to fail, it will not be a good day. The titan is sufficient just my opinion i would have put in watercooling thats all. I might just be behind the times!

 

[NMEBowen]

theres a few cpu coolers on the market such as the asaka voodoo venom or the coolermaster v10 that smash any closed loop water cooling unit on the market both of which are cheeper.

Cheers guys for the advice in relation to the casings which one would be better the;
COOLERMASTER CM STORM ENFORCER
or
InWIN Dragon Rider Black Gaming Case

which has the better airflow, both priced the same?


The same for the mobo
