need help on a new pc

[SDWdidi]

Hey guys, I have a friend who just asked me to make him a new custom PC. And, I'd like to see about anything you guys think as of a PC (his PC is mainly for 4k in the future) he has a 3500$ budget (with keyboard and screen included) and what he wants is:

  -1 GPU (has to be a 1080 and he is later on going to go for a dual 1080 SLI setup)

  - I7 6850K

  -32gb ram (although I think 16 should be enough but I don't know tell me your opinion)

  -custom hardline water cooling

  -green-red/green-black theme

I hope you guys can help me out (first time I made such a big built so that's why I ask for some help)

[SDWdidi]

what about this here (rads and case might be god awfull cause idk which one to take)http://pcpartpicker.com/list/P7rh9W

[Altecice]

I have the 6850k. I choose it over the 6800k for the higher binning (better overclocking theoretically) and the extra PCI lanes.
