What's your budget? Personally I would have gone with an X99 system and 3 980s.

 

EDIT: Jees dude I didn't even look at the other stuff in there, an 80gb SSD? Astros and a blackwidow? I'd say do a little more research before making a huge investment like this. You will end up regretting it down the road.

Lmao..noo...just dont..

[Jodomcfrodo]

$4k?

That is $4993

I wouldn't call that $4k

 

$5k build. Razer Blackwidow and Astros... Please Please get a better keyboard like a DAS or Ducky and ATH-AG1's

[awesomenatorrad]

No 4k resolution

[awesomenatorrad]

I also do not have a budget to guide my build.

[Guest]

That is very unbalanced. Only a 80GB SSD ?  :huh:

[awesomenatorrad]

Okay maybe i will go with 4 of 512gb ssd in raid 0 config

How about quad sli gtx 980? I would think that would be a preferred choice.

He needs to save his money, he is only running a single 4k Monitor....

[awesomenatorrad]

I will be running 4 monitors of 4k resolution. I would be playing bf4 or other graphic intensive games on ultra and at 4k. Most probably fps should be around 80-100fps

Thats impossible for current generation of Cards, also that dell monitor is locked at 60 fps so don't bother trying to get above that.

Also i suggest you change headset, that one is terrible.

[Markyod]

80gb SSD?, don't buy a mouse from Razer they are terrible (with the exception of the deathadder), and DO NOT buy astros they probably sound worse than $100 Sennheiser headphones, if you really want a headset rather than a decent headphone and stand alone mic (best option) then buy them from a reputable audio company, both Sennheiser and Audio Technica make audiophile grade headsets. 

[awesomenatorrad]

Thanks Guys for the opinions. So how about the arrangement of gpu. Quad gtx980 or crossfire r9295x2

[athesean1]

i personally would go with x99 better keyboard and mouse, moniter and headset

I was like you at one time, dreaming that I could build a $5000 computer. But buddy, its not going to happen, do some research oh and BTW I have an astro a50 headset which is great and a blackwidow ultimate stealth that I love. None of the above have even tried them out. Or at least they haven't said.

GTX 980´s 

But you'll need a X99 Board with mid or top tier CPU if your going with 4 cards.

For a Boot drive SSD get at least 120gb mate.

[awesomenatorrad]

Why quad sli gtx 980 over the better r9295x2 crossfire.

This guy knows what he's doing, listen to him.

[monjanger]

There not better quad gtx 980s will crush  an r9295x2 crossfire. There more advanced and power efficient plus you can over clock them.

[CatCloud]

Why quad sli gtx 980 over the better r9295x2 crossfire.

Only thing better is the size on the GPU, 2 cards instead of 4 and the Coolers i guess.....Actual Horsepower the 980´s are better.

Price wise i guess the two R9 295x is cheaper.

The R9 295x2  Rivals TWO 780ti and Two 970.
