1. Budget & Location
My budget is £1700 (peripherals not included) and I am based in the UK 

2. Aim
I want to be able to play games such as crysis 3 (and 4 when it comes out), ARK Survival Evolved (I've played this on my brothers PC and I LOVE IT) and many others as well as rendering

3. Monitors
I plan on using 1 monitor to begin with which I already own (1440p) however I would like to purchase another in the future/ maybe 2 more

4. Peripherals
I do not need any peripherals or an OS included as I already have them

5. Why are you upgrading?
I sold my old PC to a friend and I need a new one!

 

Here is what I have

Sorry I already purchased the parts, but how is this an improvement? If it is a significant improvement I will cancel some of the parts and buy the ones listed here

850 Pro is a waste, the 850 EVO is just as fast and IMO it looks better for you build, the X99A SLI Krait Edition is cheaper, looks better for your build, and provides almost all the same features. The G1 Gaming is also a good way to go, plus it's one of the best 980 Ti cards out there (and it looks good for your build). Your HDD is fine, I just like Seagate drives for some reason. And the last thing is the memory, you don't need such high speed memory, it doesn't make a difference.

Thanks I will take your advice on the 850 EVO and the GPU however I just love the look of the asus board  :wub:

 

I only chose that memory because it is actually cheaper than the one you chose and has higher speed, so why not?

 

I will cancel the parts now! thanks!
