The Dominator Build Log

[asedelax97]

Hello forum,

I am building a new computer this summer and I would love to share with you guys!

Here are the (insane) specs:

Case: Corsair 750d

Motherboard: Asus E-WS x99

Processor: Intel 5960x

Cooler: Corsair GTX h110 liquid cooler

Ram: Corsair Dominator Platinum 64gb 8x8gb 2400mhz

Graphics Card: Asus R9 390X

Power Supply: Corsair ax1500i

Storage: Corsair XT SSD 960gb boot drive

And

6tb WD RED for games, and mainly everything else.

And that's everything.

So, to wrap up, yes this is gonna be a 3500 dollar build, but I feel it will be worth it in the end because of the high specs, I won't need to upgrade any time soon. Thanks for looking at it, and give me any recommendations in terms of changing stuff or swapping things around.

Things this computer will be used for:

Gaming at 4k

Heavy video editing

3d rendering

3d modeling

Mods for skyrim and games such as that

Well not JUST for gaming, video editing, video animation, and 3d rendering. Some custom modding for skyrim and other games.

960GB boot drive?

Go big or go home. I have a 128gb corsair ls ATM in my system now and it's got 3gb left and while 960 isn't necessary, 512gb could easily suffice, I might as well go with the best I can get.

You should get a 250GB and get a 980 Ti?

250 gb would not be enough for me. And I was thinking a 980ti originally, but AMD'S 390x has shocked me with 8gb of gddr5 vs 6gb of gddr5 on the 980ti and also free sync is said to be a little better than gsync. That's why I chose the 390x over the 980ti
