Hello,

 

This is my first time build a pc and I want some advice for choosing the right hardware.I dont have a bugdet yet, I still save money, and I assume I will have enough in a year. Now with the current hardware options I want to build a gaming rig that can play any game at ultra graphics and 4k resulotion. The current one I own isnt that good but I wont upgrade, cause my brother want to use it.

I was thinking of running an R9 295x2 in quadfire mode since it is the fastest single graphics card. Is it really worth the money (around 3k $) can i get the same results from another graphics card? maybe 4 way sli/crossfire. Even though I did some research and found out that 4 way sli/crossfire can be a pain in the neck sometimes.
As for the gpu I think I'll get an intel i7 4770k, any other suggestions are wellcome

For the motherboard I have no idea what to get or on what specs I should base my desicion on. I read that gaming motherboards dont get a lot more fps than normal ones but have some other good specs. 

For cooling I dont think a custom water loop is good since the cards already have their own water cooling system, a simple cooler for the cpu should work.

For the case I need something big to fit the graphics cards maybe the 900D from corsair which has pretty nice cable managment and lots of space for air flow. Last but not least what monitor should I get? I have seen some nice 3 and 6 monitor setups but I dont know if they are good for gaming 

Feel free to suggest a gaming build you have or any improvements on this one or even modify it :D 
I hope I can save around 6-7k for this one
