980 ti and 4k isn't going to go well but the only thing I don't like about this build is that the colour of the ram doesn't go with anything else that's unless you are having a red custom loop.

pcpart picker wont let me chose the right colour, but rest assured it will be silver!

Closer to 30 FPS than 50 in most games.

almost all of the benchmarks ive seen with comparable builds, minus the WC seem to acheive higher than 30 when OC'd, and i dont use AA, so that will add a bit of FPS

get 390X if you wanna 4K

Lol are you joking? The 980 Ti destroys the 390X. I love AMD cards, but please don't suggest a lesser card when we are literally suggesting double the current amount of GPU power.

The 980 Ti still destroys at that resolution, whether or not it was made for it or not. Now if you did 3-way 390X Crossfire, that would be a 4K beast. Maybe even 2-way.

The 390X won't even utilize that amount of VRAM. Throw them in Crossfire and then they would, but even 6GB of VRAM is plenty for 4K.

Silicon lottery - nobody can 100% guarantee an OC - you might be stuck with a stock 980 Ti
