I cant decide on buying my CPU, MOBO, GPU, or case and fans and PSU. The build I'm doing is an x99 Broad well E with a 6850k and a Asus rampage v 10 with a Evga gtx 1080 Ftw. The case will be the Phanteks Enthoo evolve tempered glass with corsair sp140 and 120 and the PSU will be the Evga P2 1000w.

I would not do that. If anything, by all but the GPU (like im doing) and get it for Christmas or save up for it. But for the others, but it all at once.

I recommend against the 6850K. The 5820K is close to $250 cheaper and performs essentially the same. You're also not getting much more from a $500 motherboard than you'd get with a $200 one, and total power consumption for your system will likely be in the 350w range, making 1000w PSU absurd and unnecessary.

As others have said, don't buy parts one at a time. By the time you've finished assembling it, the first parts you bought will be out of date.
