980 Ti over Titan X.

Bad SSD, Samsung 850 EVO or Crucial MX200 far better.

That PSU is meh, XFX/Seasonic/EVGA G2/Antec High Current Gamer would be better.

Project White Lightning (My ITX Gaming PC): Core i5-4690K | CRYORIG H5 Ultimate | ASUS Maximus VII Impact | HyperX Savage 2x8GB DDR3 | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB | WD Black 1TB | Sapphire RX 480 8GB NITRO+ OC | Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ITX | Corsair AX760 | LG 29UM67 | CM Storm Quickfire Ultimate | Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum | HyperX Cloud II | Logitech Z333

Benchmark Results: 3DMark Firestrike: 10,528 | SteamVR VR Ready (avg. quality 7.1) | VRMark 7,004 (VR Ready)

 

Other systems I've built:

Core i3-6100 | CM Hyper 212 EVO | MSI H110M ECO | Corsair Vengeance LPX 1x8GB DDR4  | ADATA SP550 120GB | Seagate 500GB | EVGA ACX 2.0 GTX 1050 Ti | Fractal Design Core 1500 | Corsair CX450M

Core i5-4590 | Intel Stock Cooler | Gigabyte GA-H97N-WIFI | HyperX Savage 2x4GB DDR3 | Seagate 500GB | Intel Integrated HD Graphics | Fractal Design Arc Mini R2 | be quiet! Pure Power L8 350W

 

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

a 980ti custom card would be better unless you do a TONNE of video editing. some 980ti custom cards are faster than a TItan X for games

Two SSDs?

2x 250GB as opposed to 1 500GB

 

if you split programs between the 2 (OS and software on 1, games on the other) it effectively doubles the total read/write speeds. could be subbed for a single 500GB (same price)

No poblem, and it has a PCI-E SSD. But you might wanna consider some of the other builds, like the ones with 2 980tis!

Dude, NICE! I just bought that same exact case and am also going for an orange/black build, can't wait to see your finished build, perhaps we can compare notes afterwards? Mine won't be nearly as beefy as yours but there will be some definite sexy factor. Good luck!! :)
