Looks pretty good, but you shouldn't really get a Titan X for gaming, waste of money. Get a 980Ti or wait for new gen GPU's coming out

to game or not to game, that`s the question

Lose the Titan X and get a GTX 980Ti instead. Perhaps even two if you get a Samsung 850 EVO 500GB for way cheaper.

 

Grab a better PSU from EVGA's G2 lineup. 650W would be fine for one. 850W for two.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

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

He probably doesn't need a Titan X, I would pick up a 980TI.

Well say if he were to get the 980ti, which one should he get it from? and he's asking if it's possible for it to be water cooled? (He's too lazy to create an account so i'm just helping that luser lel.)

Evga, Gigabtye. Those are good Cards. As for water cooling, he could get EVGA 980 ti Hybrid. (He'll need space for the radiator).

You can have a MSI or EVGA watercooled 980ti if you want too. Or you can buy a block and do it yourself.
