Hi,
I'm building my first PC and I'm thinking about the best airflow possible, especially because of the heat wave in Europe. As I did some research, it seems that this is the recommended airflow for the North XL, but I would love some advice or feedback.
Thanks!

Hi!
A lot of you have done beautiful work with your builds, I really love the classy wooden look some of you pulled off.
I'm planning to do something similar with mine; the RGB will display an orange/copper color to match the vibe.
I already put together a parts list here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xFyhkD but I'm still unsure about the motherboard and GPU choices.
For the motherboard, the ProArt matches the aesthetic perfectly, but it's a bit pricey and I'm not sure it's worth it (looks are one thing, but I don't want to overpay if it doesn't bring much to the table).
For the GPU, I've found a lot of great reviews, and I actually like that it has RGB, I just want to make sure it stays classy and fits the overall aesthetic rather than looking too flashy or gaming-oriented.
For context, I'll be using this with a UWQHD monitor, mainly for gaming — no streaming or 3D work. I'm also trying to keep the build as quiet as possible.
Any advice is welcome, whether it's about the motherboard, the GPU, or anything else in the build. I'm a newbie at this!"
Thanks !
Hi,
I'm building a new pc gamer because my actual has nearly 10 years old. I want to build something that will last in time. I will use it most of the times for gaming, I play RPG/solo games, some FPS but not much. I don't plan of use it for streaming or 3D creation.
I already build a list so I would like some advices on it : https://fr.pcpartpicker.com/list/PtBVw3. I already have the monitor on the list. For the aesthetic, I tried to build something classy more than pure gaming. I have RGB but I will use it to display a coppery or goldy color to match the case details.
I try to build a config that is silent and efficent to use the full potential of my screen (3440 x 1440, 360hz QD-OLED). I realy don't want it to be to loud when I play.
Beyond performance, I'm not convinced by the look of my GPU and motherboard. I know a ProArt motherboard and GPU would be a better match, but I don't know if it's suitable for my needs and if it's really worth paying more.
Anyway, all opinions are welcome; this is the first time building a PC !
