This looks like a very solid build.

Only recommendation I might have, is upgrading that PSU just for future expansion purposes, if you have interest in that. Otherwise, very solid. You will destroy any game 1440P max settings with this build

Sweet! Thats what i was aiming for.
What PSU would you recommend instead? Ill probably run two 980 ti's in sli eventually.
Do you reckon this ddr4 is alright for the build?
Thanks! :)

I like to leave slots open for later upgrades, and the difference in performance, if any, isn't something you're likely to notice. There is the school of thought that one should only install RAM in kits, but I've not had much trouble with mixed modules when not overclocking. If you're planning to push your memory, a matched kit makes more sense. Can't really go wrong either way. Pricing's even pretty much the same.
