I'll be damned if I see 2 R9 295X2

No you can't, RAM for laptop is different from RAM for desktop, and here's the xeon (provided that you can spend 100$ NZD more)

There's BIG DIFFERENT between 1000$ and 10000$ rig for modeling, so we need an exact one to work with

You can buy anything that fits you EXCEPT XBOX ONE

As a person who has been wearing glasses for 10 years, here are my suggestions
 
1. Clean it often, don't use chemicals as they can damage your eyes and your glasses
2. Re-calibrate it if you feel uncomfortable
3. If you work for long session, remove your glasses to have your eyes relaxed, or try some eye drops made for computer-worker

Get the FX-8320, more expensive but much better for rendering than them APU

I see no problem in the build. It's good for the price

5960X is just plain stupid, get the 5820K
 
Also, if you don't do 3 ~ 4 SLI/CF go for 650 ~ 750W PSU

Nice, but are you sure 500GB is enough?

FPS, no doubt

FPS, no doubt

I just logged in to  this 1 billion times

Congrats to your 10,000th post here

...Yet it still cheaper, your original build was so "balanced", use this

jeez, can't you do something more useful than starting a war?

Hope the self-driving car is locally controlled, not by a network grid, who the fuck knows what would happen if anyone hacks it

Everything looks solid, but I'd go for the WD black HDD as the red is mainly for NAS
 
Also I'd prefer to spend a bit more on an H100i CPU cooler instead of H80
