Thanks!

since your only using the ssd as a startup bootdrive and still keeping your hdd for mass storage with the drivers already on it there should be no reason for you to install the drivers again

The i5 7500 is better because... umm... because i'm a stupid Intel fanboy

This is my Keyboard, I dont have an alt GR key

there also are some freak changings in the os while running some tools.
 
For example I use winstep nexus, because I miss the detachable quicklaunch bar from win xp, while playing for example everquest 2 in fullscreen windowed, so I still have my task bar to run for example a second eq2 or open up the browser easily, then I get down where in the background nexus is idling, it pops to top, I move the mouse away and it's back in the background. BUT "AltGr" is perma pressed. Unlocking AltGr is done easily just pressing it one time. 
 
But this is with the Sticky Key completely disabled.

NVIDIA did that because of the lousy gains after two-way SLI. 

More than 2 way SLI isn't value for money, and creates alot of glitches in real-world use.
 
You may be better to go for 2x 1080ti for real world usage such as games. I don't know if video editing allows for use of 4 cards.

yes, Nvidia locked it to two in SLI now. 

No.
 
4 way "SLI" is only considered for business purposes.
However, if you aren't gaming, you don't need SLI and can use X GPUs at the same time.
While if you are gaming, you simply won't need it since nothing will take advantage of it.

Don't do more than two.
If you need more performance then buy 1080tis or titan XPs.

You can use 4 way sli with 10 series cards, but it is only really supported for benchmarks like fire strike. In actual games, you will have a tonne of problems and it is not officially supported there. 

Nope, no 1000-card supports it.

Trust us, dual 1080tis are better. I have 2 of those and they rip through everything. If you really want to spend more, then get 2 Titan Xps.

Dont think you need SLI for that, should work cooperatively independently SLI. 

Nope, they are the same. 4 way SLI is pretty stupid, you wont see much performance gain from it (Devs dont often optimise for 2 cards, let alone 3 or 4). 

I can assure you that SLI TITAN X's is sweet as candy and it would be more bragging rights than quad 1080s

You don't need an SLI bridge for your use case, that way, you could actually buy 4 cards. But I would not recommend it because you will probably be fine with just 2. 

THANKS HEAPS!!!!
 

Should be in the Mobo, CPU, and RAM section. But I will say this: It doesn't matter. If they are both the same DDR, and same clock speeds, they will work together, and act like 16gb. However if one is faster than the other, the faster one will downclock to meet the slower ram.

You can mix every Brand, Model number.
You could also switch the MHz but than it would run at the lowest frequency of the both sticks.

Wow- NZ gpu prices are crazy high.

His budget is $4000 NZ not 2800 

Never met someone making a real build that minded going under budget.

Bro Dam you managed to get this stuff for under $2900 nzd (My budget is $4knzd) but dam dude you managed to get some prime stuff and are saving me 1.2k. Cheers heaps bro

If you don't feel like going super nice on some stuff you could, say, get a cheaper case and cheaper cooler.
