Unless your are heavily editing and/or rendering then the 4930K would be pointless and offer minimal gaming performance

OP hinted at watercooling in the future, the 750D is very good for this whilst also not being huge. It has a sleek look and full side window to show off the rig.

Allows for cards to have a lot airflow if he is going to sli.

If it for gaming, the 4820k is pointless, if it more for editing then you can utilise it.

Also with a lga 2011 board it should be used for sli so 780 sli will be better than 780ti


Finally it is quad channel ram so you need 4 sticks , not two.

you can upgrade to 780ti sli, depends on your budget.

also with the ram you'll be able to run on 2x8GB in dual channel without bothering the sytem, other than the performance is less than quad channel.
