I was wondering if anyone would comment on my build and tell me if they think something will not work here. I have the following hardware ordered:
Case: Apevia X-Jupiter G Type Blue
http://xoxide.com/apevia-jupiterg-blue.html
Video Card: EVGA GT260 Superclocked.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130433
Power Supply: Corsair TX750W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139006
CPU Cooler: Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835154011
Motherboard: P6T Deluxe V2
RAM: Kingston HyperX 6GB Tri-channel 2000OC. PC16000
http://www.shopmania.co.uk/shopping~online-memory~buy-kingston-khx2000c9d3t1k2-4gx~p-6854991.html
CPU: Intel i7 920 D0 Stepping
I'm planning to overclock this to 4.2 Ghz. My only concern is maybe the CPU Cooler. It looks like it could hold it's own. But i chose it over the Noctura D14 because that thing would block my Kingston RAM since the RAM has such huge sinks on it.
Also one question. The CPU cooler comes with thermal paste. Is that better than Arctic Silver 5 compound? I have some already and wondered if it would be better to use the AS5?
Let me know what you think of the build.
