Well, the socket of the CPU is LGA2011, the mobo is LGA1150, so that wont work. You need an X79 mobo for that CPU, something like the ASUS IV Rampage Black edition.

X79 mobo's also get really expensive for 4-way SLI Support.

This is the changes I would make, get that super nova power supply as it is fully modular, and the Ram is on the QVL, as the ram you selected may not work due to the voltage it ran at. Also changed to the ASUS Rampage mobo.

unless you favor Nvidia solution, why not 4 x 290/x. It is way cheaper and usually faster and 4gb's vram is considered the sweet spot for 4k gaming. The Titan strictly speaking is not a gaming card and 290/x is no slouch in anything compute.

Well Titan not beeing a gaming card is about 50% true. They wanted to build a card that could do everything. Gaming / Graphic editing etc etc. But it's cheaper in price / performance / power consumption to get a specialized card for or Gaming or Workstation or Bitcoin mining. Though a Titan still can't outperform AMD cards in bitcoin mining.

It was originally meant for use in high performance workstation.

I would argue the 290/x is as fast or faster in 4k gaming.

Video editing i'm not so sure. The Titan was significantly faster than the 7970 but this is Hawaii now, not Tahiti.
