HI

im looking into building myself a gaming PC (this is my first build) i was a console gamer but i got to try the new VR headsets which got me really excited so i wanna build a PC that could run those VR headsets with high fps and resolution 

and since this is my first build i have no idea about which parts to choose and which are compatible but if possible i want the build to include a gtx 980ti and a core i7  6700k 

my budget is around 2000$ 

thank you ?

You could go for 240mm liquid cooling if you want a slightly better overclock, otherwise this is what I'd get.
