Squeezing that 970 was hard l0l. I hope you can afford $820~ after rebates. If not I'll make another build

Go with @Soaked build actually, it's better than mine

Yeah I just checked physically both are spinning and they spin at 20% on idle which isn't any different from when I had 30 - 35C. I did some dusting and it went down 2-3C. Maybe it's because I just turned it on who knows. I did just build this like a week ago lol.
 
I think it's fine now thanks guys sitting around 37C, was just worried the thermal paste was deteriorating. @ELSknutson & @Nup

This is after I turned off my computer, turned off the PSU overnight to sleep. Case is completely cool. Only played for like less than an hour then I saw my temps and stopped lol. @Nup

Something strange happened. After playing assassin's creed: unity on ultra and getting like 50fps and peaking 81C. My GPU idles around 40C now instead of the original 30-35C that I had before I played that game. Is this supposed to happen? Is it possible the thermal paste loss some of it's durability because of the heat peak? Trying to figure out a way to get my GPU back to that temp lol, it runs 10C higher now on CS:GO too from 50C. I have no idea but yeah I know it can run at 94C but I want dem temps man.
 
Edit: Oh and I plugged a DVI cable into my GPU for the first time yesterday, dropped my case like 20cm not sure if relevant.

16GB of RAM is just not enough for 4K editing with a 6-core CPU like this. Beyond raw export encoding performance, you'd have a better experience with an i7-4790K and 32GB of RAM over bottlenecking a 5820K/5930K with just 16GB of RAM.

4690k or 4460

this would be a better than a AMD FX build

SPEND ALL THE MONEY !

Yes but it will adjust the same as your CPU. So it won't help with cooling your case after intense gaming sessions.
 
Your CPU is hot, fan speeds up.
CPU load is low, fan speed is low.

Premium fan is only a small different compare to stock fan.
70c for a 290x is normal.
My 970 on fan at max load was 67c.
so is fine
u can fill all ur fan slot in ur case to help that a lil

two 280x is nuts.

Oh, I missed that--was distracted and didn't notice. It seems fine other than for the blue motherboard + red ram. 

1. Haswell --> Newer cpus handle voltage differently. Prime95 asks for too much and can be harmful. Benchmarks are good for testing stability but they aren't necessary if you aren't oc'ing. 
Msi Afterburner can be useful for setting a custom fan curve as well as monitoring/oc'ing. Brand doesn't really matter.
2. The software can be useful when needed. I otherwise don't touch them. 
3. Updating the bios is good. There's also the saying of 'don't fix what isn't broken' and keep in mind that anything you do is at your own risk.
4. Oh.
5. It would help to list your build..?

Whoa!  and I thought I was too slow
 
Enjoy your PC Soaked!

You connect your monitors.... to your graphics card, not your motherboard.

You connect your monitor through your graphics card, not motherboard. No need to worry my friend.

The motherboard isn't very good if you plan to OC, I'd look at a board with a 6 phase VRM that way you keep down the cost but still have room to OC. Something like a Asrock Z97 Pro4 You really should get an SSD, it stops a lot of frame drops in games because it's fast enough to keep up with the GPU especially if your loading textures at 1440p+ also Windows itself is MUCH more responsive. It's 2015 EVERY computer should have an SSD. Saying SSD's are aren't worth it is like saying flash drives aren't worth it because we can just use a floppy disk.

Yeah, that motherboard is really cheap-ass for that build. If you want to do some streaming the microphone and headset will perform pretty poor.
 
Perhaps throw in a Syba DAC, eventhough the impedance matching is pretty bad it will still be lots better than the onboard.

Yes it's perfect for streaming and AAA titles.
1440p it will be great as well.
4k it'll struggle in AAA titles unless you get another 290x.

I have corsair ap140's quiet edition, and they are great and quiet, but they cost $20 bucks a piece.
That fan looks fine; it shouldn't be an issue.
sorry af not ap fans in my build

Up to you. Having the psu fan face downward will give it fresher air and having it fan-side up will remove heat from the graphics card at the cost of having the psu run warmer. 
Yes, use the lower side panel fan mount.
