Finally bought all the parts

So I had been planning on building a new computer and giving mine to a friend. My last PC had a 4790k, Asus z97 pro gamer, Gigabyte 980 ti Xtreme, Corsair AX860i, 240Gb SSD, 3TB HDD, NZXT H44 and pretty standard gaming peripherals as well as a 1080p hd television. My friend said she will be very happy with the computer so I just have to wait to transfer most of my data. So as for my current build, I was inspired to build it because I have a lot of projects going on in my classes and I wanted them done as fast as possible. Also I have a lot of videos to edit because my roommates pay me to render and edit their videos. My classes in which I needed this computer are: my music classes so I could record a lot more because I have a studio but no decent way to edit the audio, my computer classes obviously my teacher keeps making us use cheap parts and I have tons of spares lying around so I need to sell him a few of my old motherboards and cpus, my 3D animation classes, I am in an advanced 3d class and the classes computers aren't very good with 3d rendering and such so I want to take a lot of the work home and work on it and I need a beast computer to edit what I have planned. So most of the parts I have already bought, the ones I haven't bought yet is the monitors I have one of them so far but the reason behind that is because I have a small desk at the moment so I need to get a bigger desk before I get more monitors. So here is the parts list.

So the price I wasn't worried about at all like not even slightly. I eventually plan on switching out the 1080s for the Titan X pascal when I can get my hands on them, I don't care that it's already out and I bought the 1080s. That literally doesn't phase me because I plan on keeping the cads and making another build for just gaming in the future. This build will be for basically everything. Gaming, School, production, editing, rendering, media, everything. So tell me what you think, don't be a dick, don't state the obvious, don't shit talk, and don't say I could have done something better because guess what I did what i wanted so I am happy with that.

When I saw 2 ultrawide and 2 24" monitors I knew what you meant about deskspace. 

I want to ask you hoe you are going to fill that much desktop space? Hell that would be enough to game, EDIT music, and edit musci at the same time if you could do that simultanously (or more specifically: effectively) on one machine. I would probably have Trouble filling two 24" alongside and ultra wid but you are planing on a second ultrawide. Please explain to :)

I am not to deep into the Audio and video world but I think I know a hanfull of programs you might be using. Feel free to tell me about How you want to fill that space.

Wish I could have your old rig lmao, wish I could build a rig like that and then build another rig like that and give away a PC that'll last the next 4-5 years like nothing.

Nice rig, don't agree with some choices but it isn't anything horrible.

well I like to multitask so I planned on the acer being the main monitor and the 24 inches portrait beside it and the lg above oon the wall. So the most i might do at once is game, record, stream, and watch youtube or a video that I need to edit. I also like using multiple screens for my music sheets because sometimes I record from my desk but it all depends.

Haha thanks I get a lot of help from friends that owe me a ton they buy me most of the parts and then they will never owe me a again, it's not like blackmail or anything. My friends are really nice and some of them I literally saved their lives and some I just build and/or repaired their computers. Everything I chose was from personal taste and referals so yeah. Also I have kinda been known to give away computer parts.

Haha, just incase you're curious I personally would of gone with a Ducky Shine 5 keyboard, better keycaps and lighting though I admit the K70 looks sexy. Not a fan of Asus, they've fucked over to many people imo but others have had great experiences. Other parts are more or less personal preference give or take. Though great build, have fun. I enjoy my little i3-6100 lol

I just like Asus because I have never had a problem with the quality but I am a Gigabyte and EVGA fanboy

I must admit, I really wish I would of begged my mother to give me some money when I got my AsRock Extreme4 ATX and i3-6100 (I saved up enough for these) I paid $80 for my mobo and $110 for the CPU.

Though I seen that microATX EVGA mobo for $10 more and I would of got it if I could of got the NZXT Manta, though the satisfaction of the only things I haven't bought with my own money are gifts on Christmas/BDay is really nice.
