Hi guys! I was planning on getting it this week, but I gotta know what are your opinions with the parts?

 

Any bad choices, or even better suggestions?

 

I generally do rendering with MAX or Sketchup (V-ray, I-ray and stuff). Also some editing (If I have the time)

 

Feel free to comment! :)

Swap the GPU. You also need to get 16GB of RAM(better to have it now than later). Swap out the CPU Cooler. I'll post a build in a few minutes.

You can still stick with your build but it's better to get EVGA :D

Would the fans towers be noisy? haha I am not much of a fan in Heatsink towers, but if it permits then its ok.... 

 

(I think the towers would hide the RAM lol)

 

Are the EVGA ACX coolers still okay, since there are already ACX 2.0 haha

If you want to, you can still get the LGA1150 build below. It's a monster when you overclock the CPU and you still have lots of headroom for 2-way SLI.
