Hey, guys! I need a little help here. I'm going to be building a new PC very soon and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for my build and answer any questions I may have.

 

Here are the planned specs:

 

Asus X99 Deluxe Motherboard
 
Intel Core i7-5820K Processor
 
Gigabyte GTX 980Ti 6GB GDDR5 VRAM
 
Corsair AX860 Power Supply
QUESTION: Will this power supply have all the cables I need to hook up all my components (graphics cards, liquid cooling pump, etc.)?
 
NZXT Phantom 820 Chasis/Computer Case (White)
 
Cooler Master Hyper 212X (Backup CPU Cooler to test if the system will post or if water cooling system fails)
 
Swiftech H240-X AIO Water Cooling System
 
GSkill Ripjaws 32GB DDR4 2400MHz Memory (4x8GB)
 
Intel Series 530 120GB SSD
 
Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB
 
Samsung SH-224 Optical Drive
 
FSP EP1500 (1500VA/900WATT) Line Interactive Uninterruptible Power Supply
 
Logitech HD Pro C920 Webcam
 
Razer Deathadder Stalker Essential Keyboard (Getting the essential model for lower price)
 
Razer Deathadder Chroma Mouse
 
Asus PA248Q Monitor
 
Hope you guys could give me some suggestions!

yes that power supply will have enough cables

you only need pci-e power cables for the gpu and molex cable for the pump (unless the cooler uses a fan header instead of a molex and if thats the case your motherboard would have fan headers), both of which are included

 

nothing else to say, decent build :)

What is this build for and what is your budget and currency?

                                                                                                                 Setup

This build is my first real PC desktop for use with professional video editing applications (Adobe) and use with Cinema4D. My budget is roughly 3,950 USD/177,750 PHP including peripherals but I'm limited to what I can obtain in the Philippines. The reason why I'm building a PC is because I found that by doing so, I can get much better performance compared to a Mac at the same price range (no offense to Apple here, I use pretty much all their products). I don't have the budget right now for expensive workstation grade components and I discourage the use of ordering from abroad due to known issues in regards to importing items into the Philippines (customs delays, missing items, etc.)

Thanks for the help, man! I'm really new to this. I'm not completely unfamiliar but I just haven't dived into a build this complex/expensive. :P
