Isn't the SLI bridge a pretty standardised piece of hardware across the board i.e. does it even matter?

 

Just a comment of the heavenly build, why not go for the threadripper if you're going balls out?

Probably gaming or helping technophobes with tech...

Why get such an expensive PC, and then cheap out on the peripherals?

The WD Blue is not very good, and way overpriced. Get something like the MX300 instead.

There isn't much support for SLI in newer titles, so you shouldn't bother, imo. 

Don't get the 1800X, just get the 1700 and overclock it. 

For gaming and Adobe CC, the 8700K is king

You should probably get an i7 8700k over the Ryzen 7 1800x.
