Ok so this is what Im planning on getting http://pcpartpicker.com/list/RpWBhq

Now Ive cleared away a lot of questions already but I still have plenty more lol. Let me first start by saying im set on the GPU, CPU, CPU Cooler, PSU, Ram, and memory. However if there any suggestions to modify or replace those im open to consider

Now heres my main concern right now, Im thinking on getting the NZXT S340 case. Ive done alot of research on it and see that it has two default exhaust fan in the rear. Now im thinking about getting two 140 af intake fans on the front.

Now ive searched around and see that its not necessary if your not overclocking to add the fans but I might do just a little bit of overclocking in a little bit but not right away. I just heard if you add those fans it maximises airflow I just wanted to know if it would work in my situation. And just another quick note, the s340 has a big block in front so it only leaves space at the top and bottom.... will this effect the air to the fans??

Another question is if my mobo will supoort the stock 2 fans plus the 2 extra if I get them.

No other questions right now but please answer this and tell me if you see any issues with my other parts or any suggestions in changing.
Thanks
 
Solution
I have the S340 case and have two 140mm fans in the front. It works beautifully. The case has a rear fan and top fan. I disabled the top fan as I also have the cooler as well. the build also looks good to me.

Thanks for the feedback... however I looked at the reviews on that 1080 and was wondering if you had any other suggestions.. thanks!
 
to be honest, the 1080 is probably the card that will last you the most. It can handle 4K gaming at ULTRA settings with the highest framerates. It's a card that will allow you to really future proof yourself.

When you looked at the reviews, what did you find?

on csgo maybe

no single card can do 4k ultra with decent fps in newer games


even the newest titan cant quite do it
