Hello, I am planning on building this build, do you guys have any recommendations or see any problems in this build?

I will be using my own power supply: OCZ Silencer MK III 1200W

Looks nice, but I wouldn't use the 5930k.

There isn't any need for the extra PCI-e lanes on a micro ATX system and overclocked the 5820k does just as good.

Thanks for the tip, I was actually wondering if I should choose between 5820k and 5930k but now when you pointed out and I searched about it more, I realised it's better to just get a 5820k and overclock it.

Maybe I should also point out, that the X99 platform is not specificly made for gaming.

So if you're really just playing games, then I would even go with a Z97 or Z170 platform. Skylake is now out and seems to be pretty nice.

asus dc3 is a bit on the noisy side compare to like gigabyte. Might wanna consider about that.

From what I've seen people here saying, Asus' Strix gpus have heating problems. you might be better off getting MSI, Evga, or gigabyte gpus

I'm thinking of getting the Palit GeForce GTX 980 Ti Super Jetstream what do you guys think?
