Finalizing $4k build/ 3 questions

[xDylanio]

Okay first off let me say thanks for everybody who helped me. I would like to thank @BlazingGunnerFTWbecause the majority of the build was made by him.

  First off, let me start by saying my 3 questions.

1. Can my current build (signature) handle a 1080ti at 2560x1440 and 2 other generic monitors?
2. While looking at most builds I saw a note with the nzxt cooler saying                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        "The NZXT Kraken X52 Liquid CPU Cooler may require a separately available mounting adapter to fit the Asus CROSSHAIR VI HERO ATX AM4 Motherboard."                                                                                                                I would like to know that that is all about, and where I could find the proper mounting adapter.
3. For the corsair case, does it come with fans installed? If so how many.

wait a minute so you ARE buying it now? why don't you wait till vega releases in a few months?

[Drak01112]

BTW the Corsair Crystal 460X has 3 SP120 fans in the front

Edit: RGB too.

What? He didn't even say he is shopping for GPUs and the 980ti decently overclocked can pretty much reach stock 1080 mini which is where VEGA will be landing at, your comment didn't add anything to the topic

No, I'm just finalizing it, like asking for opinions on how good it is

If you want my opinions, your build seems pretty good. Looking at the parts list though, Razer mouses are inferior to other mouses at the same price.

My bad, I didn't even noticed beforehand that he was considering a 1080ti, which honestly isn't worth in my opinion a 980ti can hold him all the way for Volta hahaha I only read the case and monitors part

Spend more on the keyboard, you will regret not spending for a mechanical. Even a knockoff switch based mechanical will be a lot better.

I'm thinking of making a seperate build for my dad. I'm thinking of giving him my build (Since he isn't going to be doing much stuff so my build is easily op for him) and keeping the $4k, or just getting the $4k and instead of him running sli, ill just "borrow" the 1080ti.

You shouldn't need a bracket if you are going with the Asus Crosshair board.

@xDylanioAssuming you haven't bought everything yet, I only have a few small changes to suggest.

 

First, is the SSD you chose isn't very good, I would recommend a Trion 150 or Ultra II instead. http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/7726/sandisk-ssd-plus-z410-sata-iii-review/index.html

 

Second, is I'd recommend getting 2x16gb RAM instead of 4x8gb. Ryzen OCs better with 2 sticks filled rather than 4 sticks, and ram speed makes a large difference when it comes to gaming performance.

 

It's not horrible and these aren't horrible choices, I'm just saying there are better ones.
