Is this build compatible?

Amer · January 1, 2016

CPU: Intel Core i7-5930k or Intel Core i7-5960x

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i GTX

Motherboard: Asus X99 Rampage Extreme

Thermal Compound: Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver

Memory: Dominator Platinum Series 64GB (8 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 2800 MHz C14 Memory Kit

Storage: Samsung 850 Pro Series 1TB

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX Titan Z

Case: NZXT Phantom 820 (Matte Black)

Power Supply: Corsair AX 1200i

Operating System: Windows 10 Pro

Monitor: Asus ROG PG279Q

I also have a few questions regarding the memory. I noticed that the Platinum Series 64GB (8 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 2800 MHz C14 Memory Kit is only $590 but the Platinum Series 64GB (8 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 2800 MHz C16 Memory Kit was $1400. What's the difference between the C14 and C14 it has the same memory capacity and same MHz. I don't understand the difference between the C Memory Kits at all..

Thanks for your help and I wish you all a good New Year

.

EDIT:

I was also wondering if I should buy the 5930k or 5960x. I'm going to be doing gaming and streaming almost all the time

use pcpartpicker for the sake of our lives

5960x is a waste of money unless your just a billionare

you can cut with a i5 5820k and get dual 980 ti's

this build for streaming+gaming is pretty damn overkill

Yes, it's compatible.

And it's not worth the money.

Tell us your budget, We'll do a neat one for that budget.

I really don't have a budget but I wouldn't mind a cheaper build but I just don't want it to lack performance .

A overclocked 5820k will do anything you need.
