I have been looking around for help from other posts, but none of them had my same situation. I recently decided I want to build my own rig. As of now all I have is my 13" Macbook pro, so I need to get a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Also I will be using this computer for LAN parties. I have a budget of $2,000 dollar BTW. I also have some extra questions:
1) Should I get a Bitfenix Prodigy or Fractal Arc Midi?
2) I want to water cool my rig, so does anyone recommend any good parts or manufacturers?
3) Is water cooling a little too much? I want to overclock my CPU and GPU alot.
I put together some parts before so here they are:
Motherboard (If I go with the prodigy): EVGA Stinger
Motherboard (If I go with the Arc Mini): ASUS Maximus V Gene
CPU: i7 3770k
RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum
GPU: MSI N680GTX Lightning GTX 680
SSD: OCZ Vertex 4 128GB
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 650W
I also found a water cooling kit, but I don't know if it is good.
Also any good monitors, keyboards, and mice?
