Topic: Questions for a velox build please Posted: 23 May 2017 at 6:46pm |
Hey all
The Rig i am creating is purely for gaming. I chose the the Velox case because i've read that it has better air flow capabilities.I really would like to stay away from water cooling if I can help it. My expectations are to be able to play current games in 4k and reaching at 60 FPS or more,with a budget no more than 3,200. My questions are as followed : With the 4k gaming will air cooling be able to handle the strain? The last question is will the motherboard fit into case? MSI Z270 GAMING PRO CARBON (Intel Z270 Chipset Thank you in advance for taking to time to give advice also feel free to comment on anything else you think i may have missed.

Air cooling will be fine, and that motherboard will fit in the Velox.
For 60 fps in 4K gaming, you'd need sli, 2x gtx 1080 ti if you wanted the highest graphics settings. The single card will certainly play games on 4 k but some games would need to be adjusted to lower settings. The build looks good. |
