  1. It works, but you'd need newer DDR4 memory as well because that's what the mobo supports
  2. It's all on the quality and image specs (color, angles, screen reflection, etc.) of the monitors by the looks of it, as Aytex mentioned above...you want better quality, you spend more money usually how it works
  3. Definitely go for the CPU, with $500 you can definitely get a decent cpu (i5-6600k is good one, I'm glad I got it when I upgraded) and motherboard, as well as a viable higher-end all-in-one liquid CPU cooler like the H80i (or H100+) depending on what you'd like to do with it...but don't be afraid to do some research of your own, know what you need vs what everyone tells you you need!
  4. I do believe that you can hook up the second drive in at the same time as the first storage drive, copy everything over (might take some time), and then unplug the first one and use the second one as the primary storage. Sounds good in theory, have never tried it before, so I can't confirm anything.
  5. This is a decent PC build for the money I suppose, just note that the i7-6700 isn't overclockable (without its little -k) and it would definitely be worth looking at the next-gen Nvidia cards if you need (or want, really) that extra kick, even if they seem over-talked about as of late
  6. The R9 270 is definitely not powerful enough to support VR (I'm speaking from experience), and thus I'd highly recommend either getting an R9 390 (meh) or going straight for the GTX 1070 after the third-party coolers for it start being released (~$379 and up, best option).
  7. Based on what I know and with what the previous person said, a dual-1080 setup should be able to provide that hefty performance required for the compute workload, as it appears. The blower configuration should also add to ridding of excess heat, and there will be water-blocks for the card, so that may be something to consider. The card is probably a more gaming-oriented card than a computing-oriented card like the Tesla P100, but I don't know if that is a consideration for the project at hand.
  8. I really hope so, because I'm currently looking a ~$400 upgrade and the 1070 would save me so hard right now. I'm willing to wait for the 1070 to start shipping, as getting the supposed better price-to-performance graphics card would definitely be a worthwhile consideration and option.
