Looks really good. You should get some really nice sleeved red cables, that would look awesome.

Your current PSU is kind of a waste of money. You will never max your current psu. You'd have been fine with something like an AX760 or an AX860. Your current PSU will handle all the drives and water cooling you can throw at it.

 

About the GPU's, are you gaming at 1080p? If so you don't need the classified cards. If you are or want to game in Surround or at 1440p then go for the 4GB cards. Bare in mind that unless you overclock them, they'll only ever use a maximum of around 3.8gb of their RAM.

CPU: 5930K @ 4.5GHz | GPU: Zotac GTX 980Ti AMP! Extreme edition @ 1503MHz/7400MHz | RAM: 16GB Corsair Dom Plat @ 2667MHz CAS 13 | Motherboard: Asus X99 Sabertooth | Boot Drive: 400GB Intel 750 Series NVMe SSD | PSU: Corsair HX1000i | Monitor: Dell U2713HM 1440p monitor

On the topic of psu's, Ive read bad things about the corsair hx series and it vibrates more then anything in my pc.

I'll look into the corsair ax series, also they have nice sleeved cables

 

And for graphics cards, Im waiting on my other Asus vg248qe monitors, they are 1080p so Ill be running they in surround

Ive also read that with new games coming soon, some will require more then 2GB's of VRAM.

So I think I would be better off with the 4GB cards, also Evga has the step up program

 

Thank you for your post :)

Really? Well I've just invested in an AX850 (the old model) and I couldn't be happier, nice and quiet.

If I were you I'd get an AX860, it would give you more headroom than an AX760 for water cooling, more drives, overclocking etc.

 

I've just ordered some red sleeved cables ;)

 

You'll definitely need the 4GB cards bud. Surround gaming means 200% more pixels to generate, which needs a lot of VRAM. Get the 4GB cards for peace of mind. :)
