save the money from the i7 5930K, and instead go for a i7 4790K and a z97 board with a GTX 980. You aren't going to need six cores for gaming and the 4790k should be fine for some video editing.

15 4670K, Hyper TX3 Evo, MSI - Z97 GD-65, GTX 750ti, 8Gb Ripjaws G.Skill, Graphite 230T

Ohh well in that case a pretty good build, however there is room for upgrades in the future (maybe a second 970 for some sick SLI scaling with your current CPU)

15 4670K, Hyper TX3 Evo, MSI - Z97 GD-65, GTX 750ti, 8Gb Ripjaws G.Skill, Graphite 230T

Nice build, why exactly did you go with Dominator Platinum ram?

Molex to SATA, lose all your data

Well because of the style and the lights that come with it and it's DDR4 for 2800 MHz

Well even if you bought most of them you still have an awesome rig for the tasks :), I wouldn't dwell, just enjoy the power you have right now.

honestly i think that build kinda sucks.

 

you overpaid heavily on the cpu, mobo and ram. A 5820k gets the exact same performance as a 5930k at like half the cost. 

 

Furthermore and more importantly 970 SLI setup at best will slightly out preform a 980 Ti but when SLI isn't working right will actually performance worse. Plus draw more twice the power too. 

 

Channeling the savings of cheaper cpu. mobo and ram into better gpu (titan x or even 980 ti SLI) would give you much more performance. 

 

in short you got sucked out of a lot of money and performance too.

 

Lastly you didn't mention the monitor.

they also cost twice as much as other DDR4 2800 modules. If the looks are worth it for you, then they're alright. I just find them way too expensive for what they are. 

The Power supply is overkill, even if you choose to add a second graphics card. Go with something like a 700-800w model.

I guess your right I'll go with the 5820K and I'm planning on doing 1080p for now and 4K later on in the future for the monitor

Can you put the fans on top of the rad? That'll give you much easier cleaning in the future, because you won't need to remove the fans in order to clean the rad.

Edit: that is if they're pushing air out of the case
