Helllo! I would like to hear your opinion on my components list and any advice on my choices so far. Keep in mind that I am waiting for pascal to come out to make a final decision on what graphics card to get. Other than that most of the components on the list are final and only subject to change if there is a better product for a price that is similar.

i would actually drop the 120gb SSD and get a 1tb. I would rather have the capacity imo, Otherwise its a good build.

I would recommend you take another look at your storage options there, as you could get either a 250GB 850 EVO + a 1TB HDD for the same price, or a 500GB SSD from Sandisk.

Well, with an i7, GTX 1080, Full tower and flashy lights, it can obviously only be for one thing:

Solitaire.

Why do you have 2 SSD's? I'm assuming one boot, but is the other one for games? You'll run out of space pretty rapidly on a 240GB drive.

I'd save up a little more and get a 1TB SSD. It's only another $100 or so.

As others have said, wait for the 1080. No point in getting the 980 now.
