BOLT X gaming and work config

Truth is that under heavy load/gaming your fan is gonna be loud, no real way around that unless you put gpu under lc, but again under heavy load the fans of the lc will be a bit loud (not as loud as gpu fan tho). You can special order quiet fans but now we are talking $$$$. Plus with lc comes possibility of leak/pump failure, for both you gave to work on the system.

For psu the less load it carries = less stress /heat it has = its fan not being on as long and as high / possible longer life span.

Samsung is king in ssd right now one reason they make their own and consistently improve on the technology. If you can 960 pro has the best speed /quality/warranty.

When it comes to pcs specially high end, odds are something is going to go bad, so don't expect to have no issues at all, while a very few get lucky, most will have issues, ram can die, ssd/hdd goes bad, psu can fail, with liquid cooling you can have leaks or pump failure.

Just keep that in mind, we keep it real here.

Personally i like other models as we get more choices but if you are stuck on bolt, what you got is good, i would go 750w psu, 960 pro, if 32gb is good for wirk stuff tben that is good otherwise take it to 64 now, for gaming 8gb is good , 16gb is more than enough. H115i is the way to go and choose intel turbo boost for cpu oc.

Last i can't tell you what gpu unless you tell us native resolution of your monitor.

Perhaps you want to go with corsair ram for longer warranty, DS has only 1 year part, corsair is 3 or 5 year i believe.
