This is my build so far, i have all of this plus a predator x34 monitor right now sitting in my office. 

 

Here's what i believe i am missing... 

 

Gpus i was looking to sli some gtx 1080s, but i am looking at msi x and Asus aftermarkets cards. I would appreciate help on choosing what card to pick.

 

I would also like a link to a place where i could purchase red sleeves cables to fit my psu and needs. Never had to buy cables and i don't feel like ordering multiple times because i am missing cables. Lol i hate waiting on stuff instead the mail. 

 

I was told for gaming that my motherboard also had good quality sound so a sound card would actually be useless. 

 

I plan on playing multiple games like battlefield 1 or very demanding games at Max resolution with my x34 predator screen. 

 

Waiting for a few replies and will order everything tonight. 

 

Thx.

Get some ASUS STRIX 1080s. I don't think you will need sli at this point at that resolution unless you are playing extremely intense games like witcher 3 with mods and setting tweaks, buy its up to you. The STRIX ones have some nice RGB and triple fan so good cooling too..

Well I guess Titans without watercooling isnt really the most efficient way it's probably

better to stick to 1080s then. Asus Strix and Zotac AMP Extreme are possible GPUs.

 

Just a question do you need 2 1TB SSDs? I think it's fine going with one 500GB SSD

for Windows and programs that are supposed to work fast and then get a SSHD for

games and stuff like that. You would safe a lot imo but it's up to you anyway.

I've had two of them already so i will be using them in a raid setup. But if i had to buy a storage solution i would of gone M.2 slot 500gb pcie. But since it's two drives that i already had i am just going to raid zero them most likely.

All the water-cooled 1080s are out of stock, you might want to wait for one of those if you REALLY want to complete the OVERLY OVERKILL KILLER feel. 

EDIT: for the price, though, you could probably hire Linus himself to come install a waterblock for you. 

Lol i like doing thing's myself and learning from trying, i really want to go sli and i don't know where i would put to water-cooled aio 1080s.

Looking at the Asus strix and the msi gaming x or z as we speak.

Dude... don't use Raid 0, you're using bloody Evos. Use RAID 1, especially if it's for work.

It's going to be a gaming oriented PC So only games and YouTube really. 

I have a full on workstation with 3 predator x34 that i use for work. But i will go with a raid 1 solution sounds good.
