Sure. Do you want custom water cooling? Looks awesome but is pretty expensive

Mate, can you do one for me to see? I'm curious to see a really nice balanced build. (£4k inc everything)

I guess that's around what i'd get.

love that build but what abou pcie lanes?

Should be enough. The 6800k has 28 lanes which means your GPUs will run at 8x and the SSD at its standard 4x if I'm not mistaken (maybe one GPU will still work at 16x)

WHIPLASH

CPU: Intel Core i7 6700k @4.7GHz

RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4 2x8GB @3000MHz

MOBO: Asus ROG Maximus VIII Ranger

GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 FTW2

PSU: EVGA Supernova 650GS

CASE: Fractal Design Define S

Do you plan on adding more PCIe devices? Don't be concerned about bottlenecking with the 8x speed. It's still plenty fast for GPUs not to experience any decreasing performance
