something like this would make more sense imo

though you can tweak certain parts to match your purpose of the build

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

Why would you have 950s in SLI with a 6700k? Atleast go with a 970/390 if you want 2 cards.

Needs money for car parts :P

No.....

Why getting a mobo that's more expensive than your CPU?
Why 950? Why SLI? General rule of thumb: 1 single powerful card always better than 2 SLI weaker one, and 950 isnt strong to begin with. Wait for 1070 or 1080, or if you cant get a 980Ti or R9 390x. If you want white there's the HOF edition of those card that's white
Way too many fans, you dont need it.
SSD?

Waste of money on the MOBO and i mean ALOT....

IF you do this for the looks you can be way better of with other options.

Then again dont do the SLI and indeed wait for the new serie.

 

If you want to go all retard with the mobo atleast go all retard on the CPU.

Since you are "Donald Thrump"

Quote or mention me if not feel ignored
