My 1st Build

Solution
well done. windows has issues with +2tb sized hard drives (nothing major, just it can't use them for a few things... like windows backup), so something to consider would be to swap over to like 4 1TB drives and swing together a 2 TB sized RAID1+0 setup

but that's just me.




no... no and no.

first of all, 2gb of vram isn't enough for 4k. take a look at the 690's performance in 4k if you doubt this. So that's not good advice. secondly, for someone doing editing and rendering multiple screens is a huge plus...

Hi there,

I would say:

Drop to 16GB of Ram
Drop the 3 monitors for a single 1440p (1440p >>>> 1080x3)
the rest looks good, you can eventually go SLI (gtx770x2) and then attempt 4K once those monitors drop in price.

finally, extra ram is nice for what he's doing. i too think he probably can get away with 16gb of ram, but really, i don't know exactly what he's doing either. if he's doing anything 3d he'll need 32gb of ram. so i won't second guess him.
