[pastrychefin]

so back when I was in college I use to build custom gaming pcs and doing this would pay for most of my tuition but this was back when the Intel p4 478 was king. well now im building a system for my self some 15 years later. be kind its been a while does this set up make since for gaming / some 3d cad

 

mobo- asus rampage v extreme lga 2011-v3

gpu - pny GeForce gtx 1080 founders

power - evga supernova 1200

memory - g.skill tridentz 32gb ddr4 3200

cpu - intel core i7-6800k broadwell-e

hard drive - 2x mushkin enhanced reactor 1tb ssd

moniter - Samsung 391 series c32f391

 

thanks and if you could not tell im a pastry chef and now I have to go check on some cakes have a great day

That PSU is more than overkill. Get a 750w, and then you could SLI later on if you'd like as well as overclock the entire rig to it's maximum. Aside from that it's a very very strong build, only other thing I can think of is, get an aftermarket Gtx 1080. The reference cooler is a bit... well... shit. It looks good, thats it though. Even a simple dual fan custom cooler on a reference PCB would be better, but I'd suggest you just get something viciously overpowered such as the Zotac Amp Extreme 1080 or something like that. It's hardly more expensive that the reference card, and it is factory overclocked etc.

1080 Founders is definitely the most attractive out of the bunch, but a custom cooler would definitely help with Pascal's new thermal throttling style.

with Pascal, thermal throttling occurs based on the temp, voltage, and power targets you set in the overclock utility. if you reach the target then the card will downclock a little bit
