uh is your fan slot 92mm?
He's using an OEM case if I'm not mistaken

Thanks to ZERØ, I'm now looking into these:
Potential case fan
Very likely new CPU fan/heatsink

Any thoughts?
Never heard of Artic, from the reviews on there and the videos I have seen on youtube, they seem to be amazing for their price.
I was going to suggest a Fractal Design Fan that also comes in 92mm, but that Artic fan seems to out perform it.

Just really make sure that the TX3 will fit in your OEM case, or else you will have the horror of a side panel that can't close.

Talking about fans, will 5 dollar fans do the job? I mean. Its just a fan. Either way it goes at 1200RPM ind its from Xion

Any fan will do. stuff ones may wear out sooner and make sounds.
More price buys you quieter ones or more powerful airflow. But not super necessary.

Special static  pressure fans are usually preferred if they are to be used on radiators.

Its just a $700 build I am going to upgrade later when I have too much money.
So i guess cheap ones will do.

Like I cant wait when I stuff money to get a loving gtx titan and watercooling with a PCI SSD n stuff
Oh boy living the dream.

Some prebuilt computers will come with the CPU soldered into the motherboard
Really? That's loving bullstuff!

Oh btw im too lazy to edit my post but does anyone have an idea SSD's will become cheaper in the future?
New things tend to be p expensive when they come out

They must. It's part of Moore's law. It states that each new circuit will be atleast x2 more complex than the previous and the previous will drop in price.

Probably in a year or so
forget waiting that long.
But now I remember the times when DDR3 was p expensive before DDR4 came out
So yeah it makes sense

Laptops have their CPU 9 out of 10 soldered on the mb. Sometimes even gpu's

Edit: too bad I cant edit my old-ish desktop because the case is too small.
Its like 15x20x30 or something
Cant remember but you can litteraly put in in your backpack and go to McDonalds

Laptops are understandable. I've got a laptop without a regular CPU but the CPU instead, not the big adapter used in PCs and GPUs in laptops are rarely replaceable so it's understandable. But solder on a desktop CPU is loving bullstuff.

They are all going down in price very quickly by the month.
They say by end of 2016, they will be on par with (per gigabyte) of hdd prices. Obviously hdd will still allow easier larger sizes.

I wouldn't be too sure about that, we already have 16TB SSD's coming out for enterprise purposes
obviously insanely expensive, but they exist

The big price differences are going to be across form factors.

Hdds and ssds that still use stuffty sata will be roughly same price (per gigabyte)

While pci x2 lane express cards and m.2 x2/x4 lane chip ssd's will cost a lil more still

PCI SSD's are the stuff man
unfortunely they are expensive af.
Later when I bought my PC I am going to buy the SSD's later one and was planning to get a normal SSD and a PCI-SSD.
Unfortunely my MB doesnt have enough PCI slots so I have to figure that out.

I don't see a problem with 6GB/s SATA wiring for a normal user. Not like you were planning to mount a loving server to feed millions of people or massive video edit.
