My Brand new high class build {Advice Welcome}.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WsCZLJ 

This is my part list any advice is welcome as long as preformance is not dimished at least not severly, and no costly upgrades are welcome my budget is about 3k abd RGB doesn't matter that much to me and I will be buying the card directly from EVGA.

(Edit) For those of you talking about the monitors I am looking for a far better one its is matter of what I can get.

PSU is overkill and a 1080ti isn't needed for your resolution, but it is high class....

You should buy a gtx 1070 instead of a 1080 ti (maybe you should get more ram with that extra cash) and a psu with a lower wattage.

I'd recommend these slight changes:

Looks pretty good, though I'd downgrade one of those monitors to a simple 60hz panel. You're not going to be gaming on both, and it's a waste of money. I also don't like the case, but that's more of a personal preference thing

I'd get a different PSU. No point in wasting money there either, all you need is a 650w unit, maybe 750w at most.

I'd also try getting a 1TB SSD with the money you've saved.

Eh not really, if he wants to go all out and get full settings 144hz at 1080p on all titles, a 1080Ti is what you need.

PSU is massive overkill and the GPU is stupidly expensive (though the GPU market is shit right now, still wouldn't go with a hybrid card, they're overpriced). Why two 144Hz monitors? You're only going to be able to use one at a time for games, so may as well have one 144Hz and one 60Hz to save some money.

Why more RAM? 16GB is fine for the vast majority of people's uses.

After more fine tuning I believe this config will be more than enough

I guess he didn't specify so I went more conventional.  You are correct though, there are a lot of games that won't maintain 144FPS at max settings even with a TI.

[TurbulentWinds]

I would get a better monitor if you are getting a 1080 Ti. I'm driving 144HZ 1440p with a 1060 right now and used to do 144HZ 1080p with a 1050 Ti. The monitor is the bit that matters spend more on that.

Don't pay $100 for something that doesn't have tempered glass.  I got the Pro (non-M) a few days ago and it just reeks of quality and well thought out design.

 

@Mankeez build is well balanced.  I would buy a used graphics card from older generation (980Ti, Titan X Maxwell, etc) over a 1070Ti or similar.  More performance, less price.

Consider a faster memory kit with better timings.

 

Unless 2.5TB of storage is really needed, I would suggest a single 1TB ssd.

 

As others have noted the psu is way over capacity. I would suggest a 650W unit instead.

 

The case comes with two stock fans. The cpu and gpu coolers add another three fans. There is no need for additional fans.

 

Not a fan of the monitor setup. But that is a personal preference.
