Phantek's Watercooling Build - My initial project - eager for feedback!
The AMD and Nvidia markets are experiencing significant fluctuations, with AMD cards potentially outperforming at higher resolutions while CPUs lag far behind. I understand the importance of adequate airflow in the case to maintain performance on non-watercooled systems. Yes, I appreciate that high-end AMD GPUs can match premium Nvidia offerings, but I personally prefer Nvidia due to my negative experiences with AMD. Intel CPUs are also far inferior in comparison. I plan to use three 140mm fans for case airflow, including those provided for RAM, motherboard, and SSDs.
The motherboard is designed for the processor you selected; it lacks separate spaces for hard drives and doesn't provide room for two fans to cool the GPU from both sides. The cooling solution offered isn't very strong. Using liquid cooling means you won't need to blow air directly onto the voltage regulators, which is important for higher frequencies. I'm afraid I don't fully understand your suggestions here. I don't require air blowing directly on the regulators to overclock my CPU. They generate not much heat, so a direct airflow isn't necessary. Two 140 mm fans at the front and one at the back should suffice. I respectfully won't follow your advice on this build.
@ Sprados, Ron_Man22 clearly mentioned Intel in his PC Parts list. He doesn't want AMD, and what you're doing is going against the guidelines. This could push a moderator into the situation, so it's better to switch threads—preferably one focused on AMD—to discuss your points.

@ Sprados,
iRon_Man22 clearly mentioned Intel in his PC Parts list, he doesn't want AMD, your approach is going against the guidelines, and that's violating the Rules of Conduct.
If you keep pushing, it might require a moderator to step in. It's better for you to switch threads, maybe an AMD one, to discuss your points.
OK.
Appreciate you stepping in!
