With the money I have been saving up for since like 2013 I finally have the freedom to get out of this Intel HD and Intel Pentium Hell computer....

 

 

My Uses:

 

Gaming(Not hardcore),Audio Work,Video editing,photo editing,rendering,streaming at 2K , and crap ton more stuff that dose not have to do with gaming.You might ask how did I do all this on a Pentium?Well to render a 5 minute video it takes hours beyond hours.Also I usually would take my stuff to my friends system who has a

12 Core Xeon and Dual Quadro's. I'm a freaking audiophile.That's why I have so many freaking headphones.I actually need that sound card for the programs I use so...

Euggh.. don't bother adding peripherals you already have..

 

Ok.. so your build is (not including peripherals or fans or the OS) 2178

 

Check this out... Similar performance and capacity cooler, ssd / hdd (though the HDD is much quieter than a WD Black), motherboard that will take up to 128GB ram instead of 64 from Asus.. As good quality but MUCH cheaper PSU, 32GB ram, and a Water cooled 980Ti.. All for only $58 more than the above..

Yes it's good,

you would want a 980 ti or fury at those prices ( although 980 ti for cuda would be best )

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.

32 gb ram ?

SOUND CARD ?

ANTEC H2O ?

 

16 gb ram and a H110 would be best ( you really want dual rad for 5820k oc'ing )

He's editing... 32GB ram, Antec 1250 is a 240mm rad, sound-card is something the OP says he needs and was left in the build though why he doesn't get the $76 card that has the same audio chip on is beyond me.. I think he has a fair idea what he's doing but still..

I don'T PreSS caPs.. I juST Hit THe keYboARd so HarD iT CriTs :P
