Building a computer

[licant]

I'm trying to build a computer for general use, photo editing and some gaming. Right now I think i will be getting 2 1440x2560 monitors and possibly a third in the future. From what I got in another post I think I will be getting a 980 TI graphics card, and a silenco 800 case (case is iffy i could change that) I'm trying to figure out the rest of the computer now. i'm thinking of getting a intel cpu at least 4 cores wouldn't be opposed to 6 cores if its worth the money. for the motherboard i want something that will last a little bit before i have to upgrade, preferably something that can use ddr4. ram i want at least 16GB in two sticks (i want to upgrade to 32 later on), and i would like the computer to have wifi. Lastly a power supply to power everything preferable modular i hate tons of wires. 

 

Bonus: i'm kinda going for a orange look (favorite color) but black is ok too.

P.s. any other things i need let me know. i'm going 240 GB ssd with 2X 3-4 TB HHD in raid 1 i think

 

budget is 2000.00 with monitors witch i found 2 for 500 so 1500 for the computer seems doable i can do a little more if its worths the money.

Budget?

If you want an orange motherboard this one looks ok

Also what SSD are you getting? I need some suggestions for my one

 

Edit: What's your budget? I just put that one bc it is cheap xDDDDDD

What kind of money do you have (at what point will your girlfriend kill you if you spend so much)

So you're going for an all-out build. 980 TIs, dual 1440P gaming. If you really want to go super-powerful, others might suggest an i7-5960x; I would suggest the more mainstream i7-6700K with an Asus z170 motherboard. This will force you to get DDR4 RAM.

 

So there you go. 980 TI, i7-6700K, Z170. Build.

 

See 

for some benchmarks and ideas.

Whatever you buy, it's not worth the extra $$ to buy the top end stuff, the performance you get is pretty much the same as the "sweet spot" stuff but costs much more, go with bang for the buck now. I could've built my system for about 30 to 40 percent less with the same performance for most things but I bought top tier. 

 

Do splurge for i7 vs I5 however as hyperthreading does make a difference in games with lots of human players like bf3 or 4.
