You could, you know, Upgrade my bank account.

 

 

I honestly wouldn't upgrade much, maybe a custom watercooling loop? New case? How about monitors, could go for 1 (or more) RoG Swifts.

Get a third 980 for the hell of, but then accidentally ship it to me and conveniently forget who you shipped it to.

I presume you run your EVO's in a raid 0 array? You could consider a custom liquid loop. Other than a larger SSD there's not much to add or change.

Nothing. This is the best system that i could imagine for a still reasonable price.

Changing anything will only bring minor improvements.

Do watercooling if you find that interesting, other than that i wouldn't bother for the next 2 years.

Maybe make it super silent with silence optimized fans.

who cares...

Hmm, nothing much to upgrade :D I would personally go with a 1tb SSD like you said, and get another 3Tb HDD for RAID 1 (better safe than sorry, we can't have all that porn deleted :P) :)

 

Also, what about getting a better cooling for the GPU's and OC'ing them O.o

If not watercooling, grab better side monitors (1440p) and have a triple monitor gaming setup. If the side monitors don't have a 1 ms response time, you'll have to hard lock the Swift at 5 ms, or whatever the side monitors' response time is.
