Finalising my Build

[Deleted]

Hi, so I’ve started buying parts as they go on offer i would just like you guys to check this
Games I will be playing are witcher 3, batman, WOW, D3, dragon ball xenoverse, also the occasional video editing. I will be using this PC for 4 years at least.
Note- I just bought the I7 4790k, ASUS Maximus hero, the H110i GT and the wireless adapter from aria PC cause i got a good deal and the AOC Q2770PQU 60Hz 27.0 which I got an amazing deal on as a secondary monitor for anime/movies. I keep an eye on these prices regularly and will be watching when items go on offer and then buy them as they do.
I am going for red/black theme with this build so I am adding 2 led fans at the bottom of the case, will this be enough for a red colour?
Also what air pressure should I be going for in the case, I am thinking positive with the H110 at 113 and rear at 67.8 both exhaust and the bottom and front as 4 intakes in total gives me around +59 air pressure.
What would a safe OC voltage if i want to use the CPU for as long as possible, while also getting the most usage out of it and the motherboard

Build seems fine you could have made it alot cheaper without loosing performormance. But i guess you already know that, you payed for the bells and whistles

Yes slightly positive pressure is better to keep the dust out so your thoughts are correct.

Overclock, hmm there is no safe overclock. You are up for luck of the draw. Every single chip is different, how high they can go and how much voltage they will need for it while staying within the thermal limits. Generally speaking most ppl don't go above 1.3volts for every day use. I'd say that even 1.32-1.33 with the cooler you got, if you can get a nice overclock say 4.7 you should keep it if under stress testing the temps stay under 90 degrees. There is no book for it really only trial and error. You will reach a point tho as with all chips that to get to the next clock speeds where you need to add too much voltage. For me this is where you need to stop for an everyday use.
ie. 4.5Ghz@1.26v, 4.6Ghz@1.28v, 4.7Ghz@1.30 then 4.8Ghz@1.35volts. The last overclock although 1 step increment like the previous ones needs much more voltage thean the previous voltage increments. This is were personally i stop, at that 4.7@1.3volts, provided the temps are good.

The two things I'd consider waiting for are the annoucing of the R9-390X and the GTX980Ti, which are supposedly a week away.

Everything else smells overcosted, if I'm honest, but you seem to be fine with that. The only thing I'd look for is the Freesync version of the SWIFT, if that isn't already the one.

Yeah i did pay a bit extra for some accessories but I am going to take this to uni this year and will keep it for 4 years so would like it to look nice . Also i will be waiting for the release of the 980ti and 390x to see if the price of the 980 drops ( i will be buying another 980 later).

Where would I place led fans? I have 2x120 on bottom, 1x140 rear and 2x 140 in the front to place fans.

I am considering buying the 980ti when the amd cards are released which brand should i go for? I will try to OC it my self also. Still wondering what the best placement of LED fans would be, would really appreciate some help here.

ok thanks will take that into consideration
