Could you use pcpartpicker and then post the link?

This setup is perfect.

To lower the price, you could get cheaper RAM, since speed doesn't matter and those fans are not really necessary.

But I think you should just buy it, since price doesn't seem to be an issue for you.

Yeah, maybe something like some hyperX memory kits. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104461

You REALLY don't need a 4x4GB kit, a simple 2x8GB kit would do nicely, as well as adding future upgrades for another kit.

technically would make it faster as you would be using less addresses and putting less stress on the mem controller.

technically would make it faster as you would be using less addresses and putting less stress on the mem controller.

But it wouldn't really make an impact with anything he's planning to do with the machine.

@MachoTaco24 This would be much better. BTW if you want a 980, you maybe can squeeze in 970 SLI

Maybe I'll go for the 980, maybe not. I will probably overclock a lot on the 970 anyway. That and all I want is a pc that can max almost all games (just cause 3)

It should be able to (at 1440p and 1080) for 4k you'd need 2 980 for 60fps
