X99 build complete!

Hi everyone, 

 

If anyone has been following the build I've been planning for the last few weeks, I have finally finished it!

 

Cpu - 5960x overclocked to 4.7ghz @1.22v

Aio - Arctic Freezer II 420mm

Motherboard - Asus X99-S

Ram - 32gb 8x4gb ddr4 3000mhz

GPU - GTX Titan X Pascal

PSU - Corsair 1000w 80+ Gold

Case - Phanteks p500a

Ssd - sata 240gb Kingston drive

HDD - 4tb Toshiba 7200rpm

Sensor panel - cheap raspberry pi screen

 

I will be adding benchmarks to this post soon, and comparing it to my 3700x build which has a comparable cpu (8c 16t) 

 

I play at 1440p 144hz (gsync) and so far it's running great. I've played Devil May Cry 5 and it's been a solid 140-220fps, but appreciate that's not an ideal test for the setup

 

Let me know what you all think, and if you have any questions or specific tests you'd like me to do

 

This platform seems like a viable option given I got the motherboard, cpu, and ram for about £200, whereas the 3700x I was considering would have cost that on it's own
