Hello Forum/First post,
So now that Skylake is supported I am looking into building and buying a CustoMac mATX with the parts listed exactly from the buyers guide. I had a couple of questions.
I'd like the computer to be as quiet as possible. I noticed that the GPU has a fan on it, and then there are two different choices for cooling. I dont need a terrific GPU to do music production. I'm looking for the quietest parts possible. Can anyone help guide me pick between what is listed to keep the fan noise/computer noise down?
Is 32GB of ram the max?
also- which motherboard is recommended for this?
There is the [h=4]Gigabyte GA-Z170MX-Gaming[/h]
and the
