Okay, so I am doing a very fiscally irresponsible build, I know that. I am way overspending on some things, however with this build I can only get the money for it up front, any future upgrades I will have to pay for, but I don't personally have to fund the first build. I mainly want a double check to make sure everything works in the end.

 

A quick rundown before I list the parts,

I have one system running, but I have two loops, one to be the functionally loop to cool the computer cooling both 780ti's and the CPU. The Quadro is going to stick with it's built in air cooler.

The second loop is just to look cool with Mayhems aurora running through a reservoir entirely for looks.

This is very real, uses are listed above, and budget is really anything.

 

 

First thing whats with the quadro k4000. If this is used for workstation needs get a single or dual k5000 as your only gpu(s).

Other than that it looks like a good highend rig

The k4000 is to drive the 10bit functionality of the monitors and accelerate the UI of Divinci Resolve, the other GPU's are there for the more gaming side of the rig.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely look into switching some parts around, but I definitely want a custom water loop.

Whatever you do, do not get industrial Noctuas, they are as loud as reference 290s

PWM.

You gotta do you girl. I always say you gotta do you. And if he's doing him, then who's doing you? Because right now, it seems like no one's doing you.

PWM.

Yes, I was planning on turning their RPM way down as to avoid the noise, but still get the performance of Noctua, without the godawful color scheme.

If this is not funded by you why not go with a dual Titan Blacks? You could also stand to not get that insane PSU.

Will change, I am also going down to the 4790k just because I really don't need the extra two cores, and prefer the z97 sabertooth, will update parts list in a minute.

Also this is iSaeko's thing but here are a few ideas to make a really kick ass black and white theme. 

 

Black painted dominator platinums.

Moded LED Titan Black. The mod is done by disassembling the shroud and then using sandpaper to rub the green off.

At 600RPM they will be loud for a 600RPM fan, it would be better to get a cheaper fan that is better

True, but I am alright with a little noise from my computer.

I really like the dominators, but I will be water cooling the Titans so the water block is already black and white.

Updated parts list with a few changed parts.

By the way I don't know much about the quality of parts for water cooling, however I'm good at everything else. 

 

My version of your new parts, I believe you'll be able to leverage the cores now, however if not now soon.

Huh, funniest thing if you really like the Sabertooth here's a 's profile and you'll see what I mean. This and Bloody Angel are the only two dream builds of mine.
