If your budget is unlimited why not sandy-E? looks cool though

Holy crap that's gonna be pricy. That is all.

Unlimited sure, but I'd rather not have to wait any longer than necessary.

[Deus Ragno]

Yes. I've calculated it to be around 12000 dollars.

Also, how are you going to fill up one 360GB SSD with just the OS?

[joelthezombie15]

Why 3 780s? it wont be much of a improvement over 2. And corsair ssds arent to good from what ive heard. and are you going to get the white/beige 900d?

I'm probably not going to be able to. Just in case you know. Junk gathers in time and ample room will make that a non issue.

Two would look less nice, take up less space and I want one screen per GPU to make the cables symmetrical. It's mostly for looks really. Though it will provide with good future proofing as far as that concept stretches into the realms of feasability.

Okay. sounds like a plan

why not do a duel cpu setup using a workstation motherboard and cpu's then put some GTX 780's and a sound card on, it will perform EXTREMLY well in games and be EXTREMLY good when it comes to everything else.

only issue is it wont be overclockable but it will be extemly stable and you can total 16 cores at 3.2Ghz but will add another 3k ontop of your price :|

Cool suggestion. But I do want to overclock.

there is little point with workstation cpu's in all honest 16 cores will barley get tickled with 3x gtx 780's on crysis 3 maxed out in 4k res

This^. 

Dual cpus will be a lot more 'future-proof' anyway.

Also, why not 2 titans instead for more memory?

I switched the SSD's to Samsung ones. I'm gonna get the black version since this is a black and red build.

So I went a little nuts and threw caution to the wind. The list is updated and it is now even more ridiculous. Like 15828 dollars with shipping ridiculous.

After making my build, and coming here and reading this... It puts mine to shame :(

You could fill a room with gaming gear with that kind of money.
