4K Gaming build(Finally!)

[Prophet_M]

Hey guys and gals, this is what I'm planning on building and on top of that I'm planning on putting it into a desk along with a xbox one and soon to be a PS4.

You don't have a case and you do realise those are poseidon cards, they have a built in waterblock. 

[Kobathor]

That is a stupid powerful computer. 

 

Oh, it also has an Intel liquid cooler. You couldn't get a better one? 

[Patrick Bateman]

why do you need 32gb ram?

It's OEM Asetek most likely. Basically every watercooler is

[That_Random_Guy]

the 5820k has a max ram speed of 2133 so having dominator platinums at 3000 is quite a bit overkill and like $100 more expensive imo though on a system that overkill, why not i guess

[Kobathor]

It's OEM Asetek most likely. Basically every watercooler is

I knew that (I googled it after seeing it cause I've never seen it before) but he isn't gonna get any crazy overclocks on a single rad.

 

No place has the exact OEM, but lots said Asetek. 

[Master Disaster]

Jesus dude, that's a monstrous build.

Just one thing, why X99 over Skylake? I mean with the savings on the board alone you could get an extra HDD and still have change. Plus then you could get a pair of NVME ssds instead of the SATA ones and get uber fast hard disc performance.

Max RAM speed never stopped people getting 4+ GHz on a stick of DDR4

This computer is going to be built into a desk, that is why I have no case, and for the cards, I will prob switch them out for the EVGA GTX980Ti AIO cooler on there

I kinda wanted this to be a white and blue setup so I had this on there already, I'll prob change it though to a corsair 240mm

I watched the x99 vs z170 video on  YouTube and after seeing that there wasn't really that much of a difference between the two platforms I decided with Skylake

Guys, I'm so stupid, I put down a different link..... this is the right one http://pcpartpicker.com/p/gHFM99 most of it is the same except CPU mobo, and maybe RAM

geez i remember when the 6700k was like $379 lol btw its 419 on new egg but damn lol that inflation tho out of stock though

You're overspending on the mobo (Pro-gamer is fine ) and those cards still have built in waterblocks (unless that's what you want).

haha, yeah. But this will be well worth it in the end

dont think the intel liquid coolers are any good... id go with something like a dark rock pro 3 or nh d15. and why are you getting poseidons? they are for watercooling

[Prophet_M]

Is it bad that they have the built in? I may switch to the EVGA Hybrid

[Prophet_M]

I may go with a small corsair but I'll look those up

[TheRandomness]

It's not bad it's just if you're not going to be getting a custom loop done you're wasting money on getting a card with a built in waterblock 

[Master Disaster]

They're designed to be integrated into a water loop and have no HSF.

haha I know nothing about watercooling, this is why I want AIOs. it would help me out better. Would those EVGA cards be ok then, or maybe even the one MSI made with corsair

Both would be fine

[Prophet_M]

Both would be fine

. Hey, I forgot to ask, do you think 2 980ti Ali or 2 Titian x in sli would be ok for 4K gaming with ultra settings with 100hz monitor?

Don't ever consider Titan Xs. Just don't. 2 way SLI should be alright for 4k gaming but you may have to turn some settings down.
