Hi guys

I have a few questions about this system build
Does (ASUS® ROG STRIX Z370-E GAMING) have wifi if not i will get Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Ultra Gaming and wifi pci card

If i have Noctua i have two choices COOLERMASTER MASTERBOX 5t or FRACTAL DEFINE S BLACK GAMING CASE what would you chose
Are aios worth having in general or is it better to stick with air cooling

Another option i see is going for FRACTAL FOCUS G and 240mm aio
either CoolerMaster MasterLiquid Lite 240 is it good enough to cool overclocked pc, what are the noise levels
or Corsair H100i V2 as far as i know it is loud would upgrading to silent fans help a lot

I do not want to go over 2000£

The Gaming does have WiFi yes.
I love Fractal cases. They are very well built and are good at reducing noise so I would always recommend one.
The Noctua is an excellent cooler and is very quiet and performs well. A 240mm AIO will cool the CPU more efficiently although the Noctua is still great and keeps the CPU well within its temp limits. I have no experience of the Coolermaster AIO but I can definitely confirm that the Corsair is excellent and the stock fans are loud. I swapped mine out within a day of receiving my PC (the upgraded option was not available at that time)

What monitor are you pairing the system with, out of interest?

The coolermaster Lite AIO is maybe around the same area as the Noctua, possibly not quite as good. Going by the 240 non-Lite being about the same.
