For SSDs I would go for Corsair Neutron GTX or Intel 730 or Samsung 850 Pro since they are good in both, gaming and rendering.

I dont really like the hardwares you have chosen.

 

900D is massive and it is purely for huge custom water cooling.Dont waste money on that.You can go for 780T or any other case.

 

I wouldnt buy any corsair fans.tbh,noctua fans are the best fans.If you dont care about the noise then get noctua 3000 industrial fans.They are superbly fast and great and costs around 35$ each.

 

Change your SSD to crucial mx100 256GB.

 

Change your AIO cooler to nzxt Kraken X61.

 

For monitor,I would recommend Asus Swift PG278Q,but its costly.But you can manage that in your budget in no problem.Its 1440P,G sync,144HZ and 1ms response time.

 

Get i7 4790k and then overlock it.Even if you dont overlock,its still a beast with its stock clock.So yeah.

 

Get 2x 970.

 

Why choose gigabyte? Get MSI Gaming 9 AC.I think it has built it has built in wifi.

 

I dont know which RAM you like in aestheics,but lemme give you a suggestion.Dont ever go for dominator platinum unless you are rich and get the best bang for your buck.Gskill trident or corsair vengeance pro is that way to go and costs around 180 to 190$.

 

 

 

And if you need any help just qoute my reply or PM me.

 

Happy buildings!

Did you even read the post?

 

Half the parts you suggested he change he already has.....

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

yeah PB278Q for AH-IPS 1440p but I don't know how it would perfom in gaming :P

haha, just get a Korean monitor :P

 

 

 

I'm in school right now but I'll see if I can come up with something. If you're going to be doing a lot of content creation stuff, etc. more cores would benefit you highly. 5820K all the way. 2*970 as @Recon97 said would be good.

I also require a Gigabyte Motherboard with onboard Wi-Fi.

 

Just my advice on a z97 build.

I'm sorry but the only Gigabyte z97 motherboard with onboard wi-fi (at a reasonable price) is the GA-Z97N-Gaming 5 and pcpartpicker can only find GA-Z97X-Gaming 5, which I believe doesn't have WiFi. If you really want Gigabyte, get a GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 and add a wi-fi PCI board.

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i 77.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler  (Purchased For $0.00)

It's not in the OP. He said it in reply to some one down the thread, I believe near the bottom of the first page.

This do you? The R9 290 at the moment is a great value. AMD slashed prices once again.

I just picked that case because most decent cases are around 150$ so it will allow you budget to pick a good one. Also, 1 980 is cheaper then 2*970. Not to mention you can buy another 980 later.

Either or. I'm not picky.
