Why le Zotac Geforce GTX 980ti 6gb amp? Why le 4790k? This is a much better build in my opinion but it's your call

Gigabyte G1 Gaming is better, and the i7-5820k is better than the 4790k

@Chugle Are you sure that the 850W PSU will handle the system you linked? The 5820k takes relatively a lot of power and the 980Ti SLI after OC can cut it pretty close? I'm not sure, I'm just asking why this particular choice

Well PC part picker recommend a minimum of 750W.

Well yeah, It's just cutting it really close, with this budget getting a bigger one is better in my opinion, besides that, he's good to go with this build ^^

A $400 PSU? Unless you're running like a 5690X with quad Titan X, then you don't need a 1500W 80+ Platinum PSU.

A $400 PSU? Unless you're running like a 5690X with quad Titan X, then you don't need a 1500W 80+ Platinum PSU. 

When you spend this much money on a system the PSU is more of a investment than anything else.

One. It's Titanium not Platinum

Two. Like I said above everyone would agree that the PSU in one of the most important thing's in a system so it's a $400 investment to protect $2600 worth of hardware

Three. It gives him overhead so if he want's to throw in a third GPU later (even though it's terrible return for his money) that would bring him over a 1000w and that's with no manual overclocking on the CPU or the GPU's so that would bring him a lot higher if he decided to overclock. What if he decides to do a custom loop well then you have to factor that in to. How long is he going to run this system in one session because you don't want to run it anywhere near max if it's going to be ran for long periods at a time. This PSU is not overkill because it will give him overhead to do whatever he wishes to do with his system and will give his system the cleanest power possible and probably making it all last longer.
