High End Rig

  Hey Guys! Soon I will be migrating from Singapore to Australia and my dear custom watercooled PC will be too difficult and heavy to transport. In light of this, I want to build a new air cooled rig to transport. As I will be in a new environment, I won't know the IT shops etc. so I want this rig to last a few years. I also intend to use this PC to store all my files instead of having it on external media which is why I have chose to do a RAID 5 setup. The parts list is as follows:  http://pcpartpicker.com/list/zsBzNN  

 

  I need help choosing the GPU as SLI on my old cards will not work due to the PCIE requirement of the RAID card. I am seriously considering the Pascal Titan X but I am open to other inputs.

The R5 comes with 2 Fans so I don'tthink you will need some many extra fand or do you want to replace them?

EDIT: btw dp you ant to Mod your Rig to become this or build completely NEW altogether?

  Its pretty much new. im just taking the SSDs from my old build. The specs should be below. Indeed I do intend to replace all the fans as the RAID card will require high airflow fans.

St ykut Budget considered going X99 for more PCIe Lanes? Even a 6800k could solve your PCIe dilema right?

True but the only air cards I have are 780Ti's which probably are not too good anymore
