No overclock = no concern with cooling. Simple as that. Any stock cooler that comes with the product, be it cpu, gpu, psu or anything else will be perfectly fine and within spec.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

When that was put together it was the fastest money could buy [pretty much].
At the time the OS didn't even know what an M.2 was... or DDR4.... so it was an 'entertaining' build.
4 years later it's gonna still be faster than about 90% of the computers on the planet.
OK, so as a DIY it still cost the better part of 10 grand [AUD].....
And it's still on Win7 and probably will remain that way for SEVERAL more years..... in spite of the suggested doom and gloom re MS grandfathering the OS. An intelligent user isn't going to be at risk with 7 and an idiot user will still be at risk with 10.
The 'simplistic' WEI in Windows [for 7] goes to 7.9 ....this thing was 7.9 [once MS recognized the DDR4].
There IS such a thing as 'future-proofing'....but it takes quite a bit of money, and yes, one day it'll eventually be 'past it' [just like me]...

This is a decent ready built system but I agree 110% with Jafo's post.
This retails at A$1800 less loose change but it comes from on of our really good suppliers.
FWIW the Pacific Peso is only buying US$00.66.............
