Only my second build ever. I had no idea what i was doing on the first one and that remains true this time around. Looking for quality assurance and any suggestions/advice.

Edit: The case is a total splurge and requirement for my own enjoyment.

I don't know much myself, but in my "professional" opinion you don't need a $260 Case, and use that extra money from getting a less expensive case to get a bit more storage, if you have enough extra money i'd take an SSD, but if you don't you can always use an HDD for mass storage.

I really wouldn't pair a 1080Ti which was a flagship GPU a few years back with a very high end CPU from now

I agree with that, but that does increase the cost because he said that he already had the 1080ti on hand.

I did say I'd recommend dropping the CPU down to account for the added cost.

Yeah my bad

it still depends on how much you drop the CPU.
