I decided to go overkill as i won't be replacing this for another 3-5 years and want to get into pc gaming,photoshop and video editing

If you're going to spend that much wait for X99.

@DiamonDash101 Maybe you could specify & elaborate using the build guild lines in the New builds & planning by @Windspeed36.

Personally you'd might as well jump onto X79 however I don't really understand why you're thinking of buying an over-spent pc. E-Peen in my opinion.

@wng_kingsley7 well i was first of all i was hungry when i made the pcpartpicker account

and second i justify this build as I wont be upgrading in a long time so i might as well go crazy with the amount that i saved up

@DiamonDash101 the build you posted isn't very balanced
