    New Build Help

    I looked at that but I'm not sure it will fit into my current case and there is no plans to upgrade just yet, I would still like to see cooling figures comparing this to corsair h series water cooling and see which is better bang for my buck.

    Visual problems.

    Only cpu is oc'd and that is running stable and has no problems with any other activity, this worked fine before but the software Origin got updated recently and forced me to reinstall that and the game which is when these glitches first appeared.
