I love how there exists a website for literally every possible function. Not even being sarcastic, it's amazing to me that this website exists

I love it personally, once I did a full re-install instead of an upgrade (which is known to break things) it's working perfectly.

If anyone is having trouble keeping track of stock updates just use this: http://www.nowinstock.net/
You can set it to send you email notifications when a product gets new stock, it's how I got my Fallout 4 Pipboy Edition.

Is Ipquarx seriously measuring cards against one-another purely by numbers that are mostly irrelevant?

I feel as though it's important to mention that it's not because stock coolers are bad that they're loud; it's just that, since they use such small fans, they operate at ridiculous RPM (about 3000-4000+ AFAIK) whereas an aftermarket cooler's fan might only spin at around 1200-1800 RPM.

Don't be afraid to use a stock cooler if you have to, they're capable of doing what they need to do but they're definitely loud as forget. I had to tone back the one in my younger sister's computer because it sounded like a loving turbo-jet when it really got going.

I'd suggest a Hyper 212 either way, since they're cheap and will prevent any possible thermal-throttling that may occur on hot days. Especially useful if you're rendering as well

how come? did the one i chose sucked?

Put bluntly, if you're getting an i7 6700k then you should be getting something better than a 960. I'd suggest going for an i7 6600 (non-K edition since you're unlikely to overclock it) and a GTX 980, 980Ti or 1070 for a more balanced system within the same general price range
