    Too many options. What should I use to cool my 7700k

    I would highly recommend an NZXT cooler. I recently upgraded my rig from the H100i to the Kraken X61. I like the CAM software a bit better than Clink.

    I guess my first question would be are you really running 6gb of memory on that board? If so that means your not running it dual channel. Get another 2 gig stick of the same memory so all 4 memory slots are matching. If you have 3 of the 4 slots filled your not running dual channel. Should...
