Some pictures of assembly:

 

 

Unfortunately, the first came with shattered glass panel.  Amazon was very helpful and sent me a new one and allowed me to dispose of the mess.  Would have tried to work with it, but glass chunks, dust and tiny splinters were all over.  Not worth getting cut up.

 

 

Finally assembed:

 

 

Overall, one of the most straight forward builds to date.  The case was a breeze once I figured out how I wanted things.  NZXT did a great job with the cable management systems and the quality of material and construction were great.

- WHY SLI  

 

- What was total cost?

[Xplo1t]

It was something like $1,600 for the components/case/cooling/storage.  I have a bunch of 1080Ti's sitting around but they were $750 each and the peripherals like monitor/mouse/keyboard/speakers came from the prior build.  Probably approaching $5,000 if you add everything up.
