The Vanquish level 3 is a good pick, with the power supply and air cooler just fine for that setup.     If you decided to overclock the CPU to a higher clock speed, then a stronger cooler would be the way to go.   DS wouldn't match components that weren't compatible.

It looks good, as is.

oops i meant to put level 2 not 3, but yeah i don't plan to overclock anything since I'm sure the current CPU and GPU is more than enough for my needs. ill be pondering about buying this soon.. just waiting for some type of sale or any extra free bundles to be thrown in the deal.

and thanks by the way, i really don't know much about computers so every input helps.
