No I don't care about showing off it's for tax purposes as I don't really need anything else to be honest. Honestly there is no need for a smart ass comment I'm just asking for some advice. I want the best value components I can afford with this budget so if you don't like it please don't reply.
Anyway I was thinking something like this:

I have a car mate and I'm happy with it, I need a computer so might as well spend 15k on one to last many years to come, also I am thinking of going with 4 titan gtx black, with all water cooled, is this a better option or still the 780ti, also I am a developer, I will be developing programs, so basically it's a good card for that. What would you recommend?

What would you recommend?It depends on what you develop and program, but I guess go with Titan Black since you don't care about the pricing at this point.

A 15k computer might last you 6 years of useable gaming experience. Three 3k computer will in total last you probably 9-12. Years. So if your concerned about making your money go far but three smaller computers over the years, and go on a vacation with the extra 6k.
A 15k computer will work just as well in games as a 5k computer, because both of them are so far beyond the optimal price to preformance area, that they will both get about the same performance.
3 still incredible but less expensive computers over the years will last longer than 1 mega computer

Because you won't see any more preformance out of the last 10k, you won't notice any difference on a 15k computer or a 5k computer, so why waste your money?
Wouldn't you rather have several more current computers over the years than one computer that is awesome for a few, and then looses it's edge in gaming

I would not go with water cooling, it is a money suck that will not give back much performance.
For the build
4960x. 1000
Gigabyte uhd4.(X79) 300
Tri sli 780ti. 2100
16 gb ram. 200
Nh-D14. 85
Xfx. 1200w. ~150
500gb SSD. 400
2tb HD. 100
Any case of your choice
Total ~4350
Sorry I wasn't able to pick exact parts, I need to get to work soon, I went with general ideas of what prices might run you
Let me know what you think
