Here's my rig. Most of the components are second hand. Originaly I had a gtx 1060 6gb but I noticed a Titan X (Maxwell) for 300 on my local classifieds which is a decent upgrade over the 1060. Being in school for engineering I do a lot of simulations and crap that uses a ton of gpu power and vram. I think it looks decent but it's up to you guys to judge.

 

Specs:

CPU: i7 2700k @4.5G@4.5GHz

RAM: 16gb 

MOBO: ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3

GPU: NVIDIA Titan X Maxwell @ 1400MHz

CPU cooler: Be Quiet Shadow Rock 2

Case: Fractal Design Define C

PSU: Corsair RM750i

SSD: SanDisk 256gb

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB

 

Hope you enjoy!

i can't see in the photo but does the mobo have another pci-e slot? because then you could also plug in your 1060 and get even more compute performance.

 

it looks really good btw

It does but I'm trying to sell it because i only really need the titan and the case would get too hot.
