Here's an Excel file I revised for 3 years now to fit my needs.

Going to actually build the PC in a couple months, any revisions?

I am still thinking about the triple monitor setup, as it raises the price +2.5k

Any comments and opinion is acceptable :D

Do you want opinions on how to make it cheaper or better? What will you use it for?

If you want it cheaper, get a smaller SSD, since you're not going to store your data on it (probably) you could go with a little less.

If you are planning to get three monitors for gaming, why not buy a single widescreen? I'd personally get way to annoyed by the bezels.

Better honestly. Changing the SSD rn, Single widescreen would honestly be a hassle, as I game with PC, PS4, and Xbox One, so It would be a great to not switch outputs every time i want to play on the console

Overkill build is overkill. I love it <3

But I would change out the PSU to a Seasonic X-750 Gold Efficiency PSU for two reasons: 
1. Seasonic's quality is better than that FSP one 
2. I doubt you'll need 1000W of power unless you're running dual Radeon R9 295x2s. 

And alright :) will change the PSU too

Also, any one know if this radiator config is going to work on the case? I want a 360mm rad on the rear, and a 280mm on the front. The problem is, the spec site for the InWin 909 says its "up to 60mm height" in the rear. Dont know if that means with or without the fans the limit is 60mm, somebody enlighten me please?
