Build my X99 gaming/work station :)

Gostop

I was JUST about to jump the gun on the last build you guys did for me after I came back from vacation, but then the new intel CPUs and mobos came out... and I want them :D.

 

Here is what I already have on order.

 

Asus ROG Swift 1440p monitor

Asus PB278Q

Dual EVGA gtx 780 6gb

 

This PC will be my ultimate gaming and work station throne, I mix music, edit videos and do some light photoshop work. 

 

Remaining Budget: $2800

I only included 16GB as that'll be enough and you can upgrade next year when the prices come down. It is a waste buying 32GB now.
What you bought now is ~ 2300$

The case is a bit pedestrian. You may want to look at the Phanteks Enthoo Primo, the 760T, or H440. HDD in RAID 1.
