This looks like a most excellent build and other than another HDD for storage or a larger SSD if you just want to use one. Other than that I wouldn't change a thing, what type of Monitor are you planning to use?

It's a nice system with top of the range processor complemented with watercooling and a decent sized SD. Smart choice on the 970 rather than a 980.

My only gripe is the memory, you should be able to get a higher frequency kit for less.

For HDD i will use the one i have now WD 1TB but i will change it later with more SSDs!

For now i won't change my monitor (because of overbudget) but i am between two monitors:


  • ■ Samsung U28D590D or
    ■ Asus PB287Q

Rog Swift 28 inch seems that it is the best gaming monitor but it is expensive!

Yes it is because it is one of only 2 or 3 monitors with the G-sync technology and if you are going to play with the first of these monitors you are going to pay for it. Still the Asus PB287Q is a good monitor.

For the motherboard do you prefer the Asus Z97-Deluxe or one of the Asus Maximus VII Hero or Asus Maximus VII Formula?

Depends what you want it for. For gaming the Hero or the Formula. Hero if you aren't going to be watercooling in the future, Formula if you are. The Deluxe is an over all sturdy motherboard without all the gaming extraas you get with the ROGs. The Formula does have support for 2 sata express ports and one M.2 while the Hero only has on m.2 and no sata exress.

I am not interested for the moment for the M.2 so i want only sata express ports!

What is the main differences between the Maximus VII Formula and Z97 Deluxe?

P.S. I am not an overclocker so i want to do only amateur overclocking!
