if you give a lower rating please add some things that you could change to make it better (Note: 1000w PSU is so we can not have to worry about power if we upgrade to SLI. 16GB of RAM is because im going to be programming and 3d modeling and animation, plus doing YT Videos and we want it to render and upload fast. one 2TB drive is for Fraps, and the other is for Windows + all the programs and stuff. My friend and I are sharing this pc, because we have a channel together. If you have any questions feel free to ask)

We need lots of storage for games and stuff because my friend and I are sharing this PC so if we dont have that much storage it would fill up pretty fast, so what SSD should i choose ?

a still better cpu and good motherboard that comes with wifi so you could loose the expensive pcie wifi adapter.

I would have liked to put the corsair h100i in,but i don't know whether the case supports it,yes it has the place for 2x120mm fans at the top,i just don't know if the cooler will fit with the ram in the vicinity and such.So i chose the noctua nh-d14 which fit's most cases.It should cool better at high loads like prime95.
It has a good 850watt psu in which should be enough even in the case of sli.

The same changes further.This build is also cheaper.This one includes the price of the case which probably already is subtracted in your build since you already purchased that.

Whatever you pick is up to you,but i wanted to give you the other options.

I'm sorry i'm like that,putting parts in that i like.

It is partly a matter of what you like,but the zotac just has a higher core clock on the other hand that's might be a difference of a few fps at most in games so pick the one you like.
Try to find some reviews about both and compare them,not just the benchmarks but also power usage and maybe more important the cooling capabilities and sound.
From what i know the zotac has a very good cooler which isn't to loud.

A review in which they are compared,
