Tips on my future PC

Is this fine? I will am mostly using my PC for, MAYA, Unity, coding, and sometime PC exclusive games. The theme is basically black and red, and I dont intend to overclock thats why I am choosing a K series.

 

I included the monitors because i would like a second opinion. I play on my PS4 so 16:9 is my only choice. I like the look of the ASUS MX line (currently have one MX279H and some crappy Dell 24 inch) and the speakers "in case" i need it. (mostly on headphones).

 

So basically, Im asking if this is build ok for the next 3-4 years and is there an alternative component to make it cheaper and not compromise on performance and why? same with the monitors.. thank you.

 

This is my current set up : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/jxM2XL

if you arnt going to overclock you dont need the radiator and if your doing a red and black build i would recommend this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103189

but other than that it looks good

Switch to X99 and pick up a 5820k for the same price.

 

what are the pros of 5820K over 6700/K?

If you aren't dead set on IPS monitors, there are plenty of G-Sync options out there. http://www.144hzmonitors.com/gaming-monitors-buyers-guide-december-2015/

 

Since your case has the room for it, I would look for a larger form-factor motherboard with more PCIe slots for expansion and more room for the Corsair H100i and 980. But it's just personal preference.
