Get a 1080ti because your budget is so large. You can take some of the price from the ram and the motherboard if you don't have another $150 sitting around.

Talk about over-priced build.. given how the 1080 is in an odd place right now where the cheaper 1070 Ti is pretty much just as good you might want to consider the 1080 Ti already... specially on how you're spending a shit load of money on every thing else already.

 

Get a better PSU as well... like a Corsair RM850x if you totally want over-kill wattage at least this one is of better quality and more silent.

jesus christ this is so unnecessary, if you're an enthusiast and you want the best stuff only, i understand that (even though it doesn't make anything better, its only for looks and bragging), but you're picking the GTX 1080 and wasting the rest of your money on waterblocks?.......

Custom loop questions are better asked in Liquid and Exotic Cooling.

 

The Samsung 970 Evo is newer and less expensive tech.

 

1000W is far more capacity than could be used. Allowing for overclocking, a 750W - 850W psu is more than enough. I'd also suggest a fully modular Seasonic Focus Plus, Prime, or Corsair RMx model.

 

It's not like putting lego together. There is some careful work needed to remove the gpu air cooler and install the water block. One also needs to be extremely careful and patient assembling and testing the cooling loop.

 

I join the others in suggesting a GTX 1080 Ti. EKWB has Aura Sync compatible water blocks, https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-fc1080-gtx-ti-strix-rgb-nickel.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
