My questions are as follows,
1) Ive chose the ryzen 2700x over intel i7 7820, did i make a good choice?
2) What are the potential upgrades for said AMD series with *and *without a motherboard change. ( i ask this as i noticed the path for intel is the i9 and it didnt require a motherboard change however when selecting what amd cpu the 2700x was the highest it would show me. )
3) With a potential 6 120mm fans and a lot more on the graphics cards is that enough cooling for now and for any future gpu upgrades or should i go for the corsair h115 cooler with fans?
Thank you for your time, patience and replys to my questions i look forward to the answers.
