The 980 Ti certainly is faster than the Fury X...

 

Edit: Oh and I'd get the PSU instead: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-220g20750xr

I'd say it depends on which side you want the window on. If you want the window on the GPU side get the Fury X, if on then non-GPU side, get the 980Ti since it could breath properly there.

Aftermarket 980Ti >= Fury X >= Reference 980Ti > Fury > 980 > 390X > 390 >= 970 > 380X > 380 >= 960 > 950 >= 370 > 750Ti = 360

It's mainly personal preference here but I'd go for the 980Ti over the Fury X. Even with the recent antics regarding DX12, the 980Ti will not be affected as game's wont even start to fully utilize DX12 until the 980Ti get's an upgrade.

 

If you've got the room and want to go for a dual closed loop cooling solution then by all means get the Fury X. It really is preference with your build here to be honest mate, look at the benchmark's regarding the 980Ti/Fury X and see which looks more promising for yourself.

I would go 980Ti but if you're thinking about the future DX12 you could go Fury X since all current Nvidia GPUs(Maxwell) don't support Async compute but then again we don't know the performance when Async compute isn't tested so you could still go 980Ti

DX11 drivers hold back the Fury X quite severely. Get the 980TI.

980Ti is the better one, even with DX12 , 980Ti and Fury X perform pretty close on DX12 while the 980 Ti has more VRAM and maybe OC room, not sure how Fury X performs while OCed

Czex,

 

Just wondering why the need to have a mini-ITX setup?

It's going to be a very tight fit for all of the components.

 

Would a mini-ATX setup be better?

Well, seeing as you can't really OC the Fury X to any significant degree. Not much better.
