    I recommend using pcpartspicker.com to helplay with building a system.

    @Flameh0tyou can still try overclocking without aftermarket cooling, just don't go crazy on added voltage. just use MSI afterburner or the like and follow a basic guide if you're not familiar with the process.

    the new AM4 platform will be supported till 2020. the R7 1700 represents the best overall value compared to the 1800 and 1800x.

    in terms of overall value performance per dollar the AMD R7 1700 is incredible, 8core 16thread for the same price as the 4core 8thread non K 7700. that can still overclock on the cheaper B350 chip set.
    With bios and driver updates the Ryzen line has been significantly closing the performance leads initially held by  Intel Skylake.

    the 7700k as mentioned is pretty much  a 1 trick high refresh rate pony in terms of performance its far from a bad CPU but its starting to tap out and stutter in multi threaded applications. and in comparison to the competition is overpriced.

    Intel has even suggested when the issue was found regarding that the 7700k was thermal spiking that users should not overclock it.....

    Intel might have the best* gaming CPU with high IPC but they still use bird poop for thermal interface material between the die and the ihs while voiding warranty by de-lidding.

    Intel supports and funds Feminist Frequency...just sayin.

    It's shifty practices as such that make me want to sell my 6700k and switch to AMD.

    That and my first PC build  was an AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+ on socket 939, so i am a bit fuzzy to AMD but I am not a fanboy.
    This, but also if you pair a Ryzen with high speed memory you'll close the gap to the 7700K (3600MHz does this, but aim for min 3200MHz at least) and you get outstanding multithreaded performance for its price.

    AoC doesnt run on my watercooled 1080ti & 7700k overclocked to 5.1

    id wait till release is closer to worry about it ;)
    @Ziz
    I've got a GTX 1080 Ti aswell, but need (want) some water cooling and don't know what to get. What do you have for your system? N does the water cooling system prevent any damage from OC'ing a GTX 1080 Ti?
    I use an EK water block on hte GPU tied in with 2 alpha cool xt45 360 radiators, an alpha cool 150mm eisbecher reservoir, a d5 vario pump and an Eisblock.

    Water cooling will keep it very cool and quiet if you have enough radiators. You can over lock a little higher than vs a good air cooled card but mine is silent even under full load

    This game is being run on Unreal Engine 4, so if you look up the specs on that it will give you a rough idea, my PC is not the best but can still run Unreal Engine 4 but the game isn't going to be available until December 2018 so I wouldn't worry about it :smile:
