So, after 5 years of saving yp I finally got myself 5000$ to get my gaming rig done. I realised I have no idea wich parts to get because I would have just spend them all on a quaddro and a xeon, so, I require some assistance and recommandations. I already got the case and PSU from my friends old rig who built another one. The PSU is a Corsair AXi1200 W and the case is a Fractal Design Define XLR2

Yeah, then it can double as a heater!

 

But seriously, 2 295X2 is 4 GPUs. And scaling is disgusting with that.

Dude. That 2tb drive is overpriced. 750 on amazon. 

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.

I just went with something ridiculous for that budget.  And, he has the budget for it.  xD

Just because someone's budget has room to fit it, doesnt mean you should recommend it just to drain that budget when not necessary.

Thank you, The only thing I would switch is the gpu, because I know I said temps are no problem, but two 295X2s is just too much.

You saved up for 5 years to buy a 5000 dollar gaming pc?....  You could have just bought a 1000 dollar gaming pc 4 years ago and spent 1000 dollars every year on upgrades since then and you would have gotten much better use out of your money.  And seriously, why are people suggesting anything higher than the 4790k for a JUST GAMING pc?  It is the fastest CPU on the market, and will yield the best performance for just games, while also being cheaper.

Okay, for the budget thing on that HDD that's what was picked by PCpartpicker didn't know amazon had that exact one cheaper.  As for the 295x2.  If you vent it well it is still highly supported by AMD.  The crossfire is gunna give them enough power for quite some time at various resolutions.  You could crossfire that or sli 2 980tis for the same amount of power.  Either one is fine.  The i7 might have been a lil overboard though.

 

I'm like 100% sure 2 980TIs would wreck 2 295x2s, while also still being cheaper.  You are recommending 2 $800 cards ($1600), when you could have gotten 2 $650 cards ($1300), which have more performance, less heat, use less electricity, and less noise.  Each 295x2 acts as 2 cards in crossfire, so 2 295x2s act like 4 cards in crossfire, and the scaling at 3 and 4 cards is abysmal, where running 2 980TIs is actually equivalent to running 2 cards in sli, which has much better scaling than the former, and still being cheaper.

295x2 while technically is still the most powerful single card dual head GPU in the market

 

it just met its day when the 980Ti and Fury X is released

 

even dual Fury Xs chomps the 295x2 for breakfast

For the price, 980Ti's are far more the worth, you can just XFire a 295X2, its already a dual card, XFire'ing them would make it a 4-way XFire, you know how awful that would be? Let alone the heat, noise, and power usage...

Since we are talking insane budgets, this is what I would build if had a $5000 budget.  Even then I wouldn't recommend anyone buy it since it is stupidly overkill.  It's funny because I couldn't even get close to the $5000 mark.  The only way I could do it is if I bought shit just for the lolz, since there would be little to no noticeable performance improvement in gaming beyond what I already got.

Meh, its cheap and has a 2 year warranty.  There is a reason that you are recommended to routinely backup your data.  WD's equivalent black series drive has a 5 year warranty, and is nearly twice the price, with only slightly better reviews.  I don't think it is worth that much of a difference in price imo.  Like I said, routine backups are the way to go, and when it dies buy a new one.
