this is my list for my build coming in january 2017 i know about the zen cpus and i may wait until then to change my build list.

 

i use Autodesk maya for 3d modelling and use other sculpting programs like mudbox and zbrush i also dabble in high end gaming (Exc. 4K) as well as video editing for YouTube.

 

what would be the best cooler for this build that is air oriented

ok holy shit you're rich first of all, and get a cryorig c1. It'll be fine if youre not gonna overclock, but I'd hate to see that go to waste man, get an AIO liquid cooler (it's not that hard) and Overclock the shit out of that thing! With two 1080's I'd expect a custom waterloop.

Any of the larger coolers from Noctua, Be Quiet, or Cryorig. You have a fairly large budget to play with, by the looks of it, so go nuts. ;)

 

Personally, I'd go with the R1 from Cryorig. Big enough to run passive (fans off) at idle/low loads and near silent under full load.

Since you're not OCing, pretty much any good aftermarket cooler will do you just fine.

 

You can choose a great value

Or a good looking one

Or one you can run fanless for the most part

January is a long time from now. Prices change often and I suggest you plan later --2-3 days before you buy and not months in advance. 

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

Why two gtx 1080's for three 1080p screens? get two 4k panels or a 144hz ultrawide instead, also just get a all in one liquid cooler (almost the same process as putting on an air cooler except the rads) and overclock that to like 4.8ghz instead

 

EDIT: changed some things so take a look what you think, http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/kdkfvV maybe go with the same keyboard just giving some recommendations

i want to keep the budget under £4000 preferably under £3300

 

edited the part list to this setup instead but only using 1 gtx 1080 i put 2 on there for later on if i decide to do SLI : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/sGV4sJ 

 

the reason why i dont want to do liquid cooling is because i have heard of the risks of having a AIO liquid cooler or any liquid cooler and thats why i want to go with air cooling (unless there is a guarantee that there wont be any leaks or damages that can occur on a liquid cooler).

 

when it comes to monitors i want to stick to something lower in terms of visuals and price and i want at least 3 monitors but i do like the look of the monitor that you put on the list (reason for 3 is because this is not for mainly gaming purposes but also for product creation as well so curved screens would be useless to me)

 

i do like the style of the keyboard and mouse for a definite

There are similar monitors to that one that aren't curved for cheaper price so that might be something to look into, but for the liquid cooler there isn't a "guarantee" that there won't be a problem but 99.99% of all liquid coolers don't leak (Corsair even offers refunds on parts if they leak i think) so you don't have to be worried about that, but if you still wanna go air cooled i'd recommend something like this because it'll match your system with the style and be silent.
