My opinion:

 

It's too damn early in the morning.

I think I should have some coffee, but I don't do caffeine.

I think I'm tired of my job, but then again, who isn't?

I think your build list has too many words for me to read this early in the AM.

I think the colour choice of pcpartpicker sucks and is hard on the eyes.

I think the price tag for the video card is weapons-grade insanity.

I think I just realized you're in the land down under and therefore the costs are all out of whack.

I think the case is bug ugly.

I think you haven't told us what you want to do with this build.

I think I've said enough.

 

But in all seriousness, perhaps a slightly stronger power supply, for future proofing. 

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

I just wanted to get some opinions on my build list

Why old tech ? You should be looking at an i7 8700K based build (Or Ryzen)

 

How come 32GB Ram ?

 

I would avoid the founders edition 1080 ti. Try and get a good aftermarket cooler such as Asus Strix etc.

 

Swap out that psu for a Seasonic Focus Plus, EVGA G2/G3 or Corsair RMx etc,

Nope, 7th gen wont get my vote. 8th gen is king for gaming now.

 

Mobo needs to be 300 series, Z370 mobo if you want to overclock

 

Could get 16GB from even number of RAM sticks and gaming performance wont change. Get 32GB if you have other uses.

 

This PSU:https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/WrNypg/seasonic-focus-plus-gold-650w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-ssr-650fx You can save 20AUD and get the 650w focus gold if you want 7 years of warranty rather than 10.

 

Ths 1080ti is good and cheaper https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/rxBrxr/msi-geforce-gtx-1080-ti-11gb-duke-oc-video-card-gtx-1080-ti-duke-11g-oc

If you want RGB sync, get this instead https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/Z8cMnQ/asus-geforce-gtx-1080-ti-11gb-video-card-strix-gtx1080ti-o11g-gaming

Oh sorry, I’m using this pc for gaming and video editing
