It might be worth it if you can stretch for those extra $33 because I guess it makes a noticeable difference for the GPU.

Just wanted to share some thoughts

GPU deals are pretty rough right now, but this GTX 960 is an absolute steal compared to what you see at places like Best Buy or Micro Center. It would be ideal if I could also squeeze in two 12cm fans

I'd rather Boss just swap it out—even though that liquid cooler is killer, the cables are way too short, especially those 2x4 pin CPU ones that'll have to stretch all the way across the motherboard.
