I didn't say you couldn't, just that you don't need it. If you get an AIO, you may not be able to control those anyway.And why ? I like to keep control of my fans.

What video card ?If possible I'd like to stay with a simple fan, no liquid.
Also, is 550W enough ? http://www.rmac.kingwin.com/products/cate/power_supplies/lzp_550.asp
Is it a 7850 or 7870?HD7800 I don't do much games
I can't say for sure, but the reviews I read, the enermax is a little better. I got it for that, and also the first slot situation, since I have 2 video cards, and I wanted them spaced out a lot.Are there any comparison of the Enermax 360 vs the Noctua NH-U14S? Seen a few comparisons of the 240, but not the 360. I'm just curious how much of an improvement it will be.
I have the Noctua right now and have been happy with it, but just ordered the Enermax 360. Mainly because I wanted to use my first PCI-e slot (adding another GPU), the Noctua blocks the slot on the Zenith.

No doubt about that, it just bothers me that in idle it will draw 50 more watts, this is a 24/7 system. Can be annoying on really hot daysFantastic cpu for the money for that purpose btw.
7850 sorry

Been there done thatSwitch all your household lighting to high efficiency LED bulbs. You'll probably save more than 50W continuous.
Had that card once and didnt have those consumption numbers. Perhaps it got worse.7850 sorry

Tpu says 10w idle and 40w for playing bluray.

But anyway. Peak power consumption for that card is miniscule even measured like thg does so your 550w is plenty. Will match up fine.

It went back up to $1000 at newegg USAnother 50$ off since yesterday on 1950x on newegg Canada, keeps going down
Great list ! Prices are out of sight for US

You might consider that 1030 video card, but thats my only feedback. I hope your 550 watt PSU has an 8 pin CPU and a 4 pin CPU, you need both. And an nvme M.2 SSD is almost a must !
Yes it has
For the SSD, my system is all SSD (Plextor M5P, Sandisk, Mushkins) and it's pretty damn quick in Windows (startup, launching). Will it really make a difference in M.2 ? Anyway I can install it at any time.
Humm, is that image representing correctly the connectors ?That’s not the same, the 8 pin EPS 12v connector typically separates into two 4 pin; higher end power supplies have two of these.
