PC Spec - Opinion

    Hiya,

    After spending the last few days trying to solve blue screen and overheating problems with my current 5 year old PC, I have come to the conclusion that a new PC is in order (Honestly been wanting one a while now, just now have an excuse!)

    This is my current selection : https:// uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/7Bz9gw (remove the space after the // as i can't post links!)
    Note : Keeping my SSD's and HD's and Gfx card (Nvidia gtx 1070 8gb) and 800watt PSU

    Looking for some opinions on the specs as I haven't been able to do miles of research but would like to order parts pretty soon.

    PS: Have previously gone for cpu liquid cooling in my last 2 specs and both now have had to be changed back to stock cooling, so im avoiding it with this spec.

    What kind of monitor do you have / games do you play?

    Also, that model Hyper 212 isn't suitable for an 8700K.
    That CPU would warrant the next tier of coolers - Cryorig H7, Noctua NH-U12S or be quiet! Dark Rock 4.
    Drop mobo down to any of the other AORUS models (Elite/Pro/Pro WiFi) to keep in budget.

    C700P is an overpriced case. Gamers Nexus agrees.
    I'd suggest CoolerMaster H500P Mesh or SL600M, Silverstone RL06 Pro, or Corsair Crystal 570X.
