Do you already have a 4k display? That build could be much improved

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I do not, as of right now I have a 720p monitor and this is the only time I think I can upgrade my pc and stuff as of right now. I am looking at the ROG SWIFT PG27AQ since I mainly play my pc and I have a xbox one would be nice to have :P

Will this build be solely used for gaming?

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

You can just use any old display port to hdmi adapter to hook up the xbox

 

otherwise this includes a 4k Free-sync IPS though, though a 40" one is recommended, it is beyond pointless to buy 980tis for that display, let alone forgoing a 4k adaptive sync display

 

and 2 non X Fury cards are fairly close to stock 980tis as far as 4k performance goes, due to better dual GPU scaling, and better performance in general at higher resolutions, and you get the free-sync display which is going to cost a good deal less than a G-sync display

and you really don't need 32gbs of RAM, you'd want a proper 32gb kit for that anyways

well DVI to HDMI is the same thing as well if you were planning to use the old one for the xbox. an adapter is like 5 bucks
