Could somebody look over the following build and confirm that I've got good synergy?
Build Description:
This is for a hi-end graphic designer who mainly works in Photoshop. The build's intention is to maximize the speed of Photoshop to the point where he can work on very large files using custom brushes and experiencing minimal lag.
This will be a 4k, 10-bit display workstation with a Cintiq 22hd as a second monitor. The LG listed below will be used to confirm 10-bit quality (gradients wont be banding). From what XRite has told me, the monitor calibration tool listed can be used on either the Cintiq or the LG Monitor.
Main Concerns:
1. That the motherboard won't be able to take full advantage of PCI-E SSD Drives. Namely, that I won't be able to efficiently use the 512 GB one as the boot drive.
2. The large motherboard structures on either side of the PCI-E 3.0 slots won't allow the Video Card to fit.
3. Is this a good liquid Coolant system for this CPU / Tower? I'm new to liquid coolant systems.
