Build 1 is my first choice.

 

Although as far as I know you can get the blower style cooler for 100 bucks less (the non founders edition) from third party manufactures until they start producing the aftermarket coolers.

So literally the same build...can you not up the PSU to a g2 or something? I'm sure you can spend the little extra for the higher quality parts in the PSU :D...but back to topic...apart from the cooler, motherboard and case has changed, anything else? Since you've only change those personal opinion parts then really, we can't really suggest you what to get :P 

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

Why founders edition? Also, wait for custom cooled cards. They'll be less expensive and possibly cooler as well.

The 3rd build has a GTX 1070 and looks alot nicer. also, the mobo has a lot more features. and, I might upgrade to sli in the future.

Im hoping to build this around June 13th. Think there will be custom cooled cards by then?

Probably. The reference cards ("founders edition") will come out first, but the custom cooled cards will come out a little later (I forget the exact date, you can look it up. Couldn't find it in a 30 second search). If you need to wait a couple of days, I'd do it.

Oh sorry, they all looked so similar I couldn't find any differences :/, I would still say get something with a 1080 as do you really need those extra features on the motherboard?
