What am I missing?

Heres my new build to replace my aging P67 2600K.

The CPU cooler is just place holder. They don't have an ETA on the H110i GTX.

Why Titan X over R9 295x2?

Edit: Oh, just noticed that there are 2 Titan X's.

Like it though I don't really see the point in 4K just yet and I don't need to mention the TX.

Mouse?

Very similar to my rig =)

Edit just noticed 2x TX's WTF?

I recognise that OCUK basket anywhere :)

No new RAM? X99 is DDR4.

Missing G-sync for your 4K monitor for when it dips below 60 fps.

@Truth_Hurts_U: Ha, I didn't spot that!

@clyde46: Yeah, bin that 4K and get the Swift or it's IPS brethren, it's on offer this week!!

@klunt_bumskrint: @klunt_bumskrint: I wanted 4K because its 4K and its £200 cheaper than the ROG but I'll swap it out. That is why I wanted 2 Titan X's. I've already got a decent mouse.

Doh! What RAM is best for it? I'm not clued up on ram specs.

@clyde46: Anything from G-Skill, Corsair is great. Depends how much you want to spend on it and how much you need.

Not too bothered about price just not extravagant, minimum is 32GB.

@clyde46: Get some G-Skill Ripjaws

What sort? There are tons of options for G-Skill.

Minimum is 32 GB? What exactly will you be doing that will actually make use of 32 GB?

It's just speed and colour and size

These if you want Black but they are only 2400MHz

They don't seem to have many 32Gb kits above 2400MHz

There is always Some 2666MHz doms

@BassMan: RAMdrive FTW!

@BassMan: Video editing. 4K stuff.

Ahhh.. OK. Just wanted to make sure you were not wasting your money on RAM that you would never make use of. 4K porn production it is. A most noble cause. hehe ;)

2 Titan X's make me feel very inadequate...........

.........and I start looking at GPU's

I'm going to have the cash so why not!

My god that's a serious PC....

Also isn't there supposed to be a new AMD GPU coming out soon with HBM memory as opposed to GDDR5?

There's a reason why that 4K 28' is cheaper that Asus ROG 1440p.

You don't buy a 20-30' monitors with 4K, you get a 50-60' TVs.

Either of these would be a good choice for DDR4 RAM

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-415-CS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=2557 - Would keep the black theme going

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-176-GL&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=2557 - The heat spreader is bright red so it may spoil the black and gold colour scheme

If you don't top the benchmark thread with that beast there's something very wrong :)

I'm wondering if plonking down another £400 is worth it for an extra two CPU cores.

I don't think going 5960X is really worth the extra cash, over the 5930K. The performance gains aren't massive, or not £400 worth in my eyes.

You forgot the $15,000 AV cabinet.

@clyde46: If you can afford it you may as well if you're going with 2 TX's.

So what's the final basket?

Video editing?...

1.5TB isn't going to cut it especially if you are gamer on top of that.

My D800E is throwing out raw 14-Bit files of 74MB.

I would recommend a 1TB SSD drive as a boot drive and 2x 2TB WD Black's in RAID 0 for storage.

Just one thing more.

Choose 850 Pro over Evo.

It will cost you a little more but it seems Evo series keep having problems with degradation.

Not to mention the 10 years warranty of 850 Pro series....

Wow.

@clyde46:

I would say build a Mini ITX system, normal sized builds are a thing of the past if you don't plan on SLI/Cross... Even if you plan on SLI/Cross it isn't worth it since by the time you're taking advantage of the setup there's already a single card out that does the job for less and better.

1200W is an overkill, a good 1000W PSU (EVGA 1000 G2/P2, CM V1000, Corsair HX1050) will get the job done.

You ain't messing around with that PC. 2 x Titan X, i7 5950k... Awesome stuff :D

@clyde46:

My conversions are a little rusty, but isn't that like over $6000?! That is insane! You could literally make a PC for half of the cost that runs amazing.

o.o I rather put that on a down payment for a type r.

*slow claps* This is some truly master-race stuff.

pfffft, aint got nothin on the 100k PC I threw together on PCpartpicker :P

Sounds great! Now order and ship it to my address please.

@Mighty-Lu-Bu: such as?

He wants to step up and above amazing.

Two Titans is overkill, one would be enough to play any game on max settings (or do whatever you need to do). 4K is not needed since there isn't anything that really supports it except for Netflix. Its just way over priced. If money is no object then go for it, but that build is absolutely ridiculous. I spent about $2000 on my build and I can run any game on max settings. You could cut your cost in half and still be fine.

One Titan is still not enough for 4k. The 4970k although a great gaming CPU is woefully out gunned when used for editing and crunching which is what this rig will be doing most the time.

4k is needed. Why bother playing at 1080p? I'll get a console if I wanted to do that. Whether it's native 4k or down sampling I want to be able to play the latest games at the best possible res. more and more games are coming with native 4k support my old chum.

Its still all overkill, but its your money.

Ditch the 500gb EVO SDD, Get a Samsung xp941 512GB or
faster Samsung sm951 512GB if you can find one. Use as your Boot Drive

Optical Drive ?
Operating system ?
Better thermal compound than what Corsair gives you ?

With SLI Titan X and a 5930k may be worth it to get better fans for your case (Move that hot air out, More CFM)
