Nice build but 2 questions...

 

1. Why not a single or even dual 980Ti. (Cheaper and better performance)

2. Why Strix, there was the MSI ones which is partnered with Corsair to you know,, add some more Corsair lel

or even dual 980Ti

it has 2 980tis...

Pro Tip: don't use flash when taking pictures of your build; use a longer exposure instead. Prop up your camera with something (preferably a tripod) if necessary.

if you use retarded/autistic/etc to mean stupid please gtfo

I started the build before the 980ti was announced

1. 5960x is too much for 980ti sli

2. asus strix aren't that good, i prefer msi or evga

3. using raid 0 is a big risk for your drives

 but still a nice build
