Need to finalize a build and optimize

Stuffing

Budget: None is set

Location: United States

 

Aim: Overkill.

Gaming, Web Browsing, Graphic Browsing, essentially to be able to run very intensive programs all at once, that is why I've selected the parts below.

 

Cooling my room down, and maintaining a quieter system overall.

 

Monitors: I run two 23" monitors, but I want to eventually upgrade to two-three 4K monitors, Preferably the Dell UP2414Q or some other gaming monitor at 4K.

 

Peripherals: I plan on getting a Corsair K70 RGB to replace my current Logitech G15 keyboard, and will be keeping my Razer Mamba 2012 Gamer Edition mouse.

 

Why are you upgrading?: Quite simply because I want to be running the latest and greatest technology with the ability to run intensive programs all at once. I have no issue with my current build, but I've had it for three years and would like to upgrade to something more efficient power usage wise seeing as all the improvements in usage for processors and graphics cards.

 

Other:

 

My build currently consists of these hardware parts that I want to add to it.

 

32GB of Vengance 2400MHz RAM

Intel i7 5960x Processor

Evga 980 GTX SC in SLI.

 

I want a case that looks nice, and has the ability to add RGB Lighting Strips to it to change the colors at will.

 

I'm looking for a computer that will run cool, and potentially cooler than my current build but none the less quieter. I am looking to lower the noise produced overall if possible while maintaining a cooler room as it can get quite hot while playing some intense battlefield 4 for 6-8 hours on end.

 

If you have any questions please feel free to ask them and I will answer them. I'm looking for any suggestions as I need to finalize this build of mine and optimize it for my wants/needs.
