If you are only gaming then you don't need a 5930K.

How much money have you got to spend?

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

With the titan X you can OC it very far just on the cooler without needing to go to water.

budget is pretty much infinate, but u dont want to get crazy with the prices

why is it not a gamng pc? im kinda a noob so i dont know to well

 

Still if you don't have a budget x99 is just nonsense for gaming you rather spend that money on a nice monitor.

 

On what resolution will you be gaming? 1080p,1440p, 4k?

and is the motherboard a big deal? because i preffer the one i put on the list better

The mobo I chose to put in that build was the cheapest one I could find that supported 3 way sli.

Where as the one you chose supports 4 way sli so the choice is yours.
