Hey everyone, I've been wanting to build my own custom pic for a while and after doing a lot of research, this is the build I'm leaning towards. If anyone has any helpful info or tips on better performance or parts please let me know, thanks.

Wait for Pascal? The new GPUs are right around the corner, and usually the Titan comes first I believe. 

Edit, also why 3 m.2 drives? Why not just 1 m.2, 1 2.5 SSD, and 1 3.5 HDD?

 

Are you actually going to buy this build?

#1 at that price you should go for 5820k or 5960x

#2 Titan Xs are the worse deal ever

#3 you don't need to spend 5k for an overkill pc

#4 consider waiting for Polaris and pascal.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Is this a real post?

 

Do you already have like 3 4k displays? or 1440p 144hz IPS displays? Or were you getting 2 titan X's for a 1080p 60hz display?

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?
