Hi guys I want to know if theres anything else I should know about this pc build before I buy it. Im going to get this
1. one 8tb 256cache HDD
2. one 1tb EVO Samsung SDD
3. one 1000w power supply
4. one or two GTX Titan Z's
5. 8x16gb TridentZ ram sticks each running at 3000mhz
6. one X99 Godlike Gaming
7. one Windows 8 Pro cd
8. one Master Case Pro 5
9. one Core i7 not sure which one tho may a extreme one?
I have a couple qustions about this build
1. I know the X99 GodLike gaming isn't made for SLI but it has 4-5 GPU slots and the GTX Titan Z says if they are connected threw SLI they will speard the work equal so I was wondering could I buy a non SLI motherboard and still use these both togther and get them to process a game will using both?
2. Is there any flaws with this build? I want this computer to be for hardcore game and 4k videos and muiltple 4k mointers and 4k games and muilt taking programs at once also to just have a very reilable computer also each of my moniters are gonna run a 200hz on 4k.
3. Should I go for a procesor with more cache or more Ghz? Is there on that goes at 4.0ghz and 20mb cache?
4. Is there any possible way of getting 2 core i7's in one motherboard running at the same time? Thanks for your help!

I have some time so why not break this down.


This is fine, although that cache is insane, I don't even think anyone makes that



If you have the money sure



For this build, a bit of overkill but if you want to overclock the hell out of it sure. The Corsair AXi1000 or EVGA 1000G2 are good choices



Why? They are 2 generations old, you want the Titan X Pascal



128gb of memory? Completely absurd. Why? anything over 32 gb...

Honestly, this incoherent build simultaneously barely outperforms something literally costing several thousand dollars less while still not meeting the absurd goals you've laid out. I guess on some level, that's impressive in itself.

SLI is not very efficient and having 2 GPU's doesn't mean it runs twice faster, in some games it run even worse than running it with just 1 GPU, it's a waste of money. I put up a build for you with 8 Core i7 6900K. Regarding the motherboard, you must make sure you get the Revision 1.1 (Rev. 1.1) so it's compatible with newer Broadwell CPU's.

Good choice.



Why? Windows 10 is better in every way.


Good case choice



If you're going nuts the i7-6950x is the way to go, however IMO for gaming its a huge waste of money, the 6900k can be fine for you.



I don't know where you got that idea but the X99 gaming supports Quad SLI and with a 40 lane CPU like the 6900k both your cards will run at x16. You cannot run SLI on a non SLI motherboard.



I highlighted most flaws above. This build is major overkill. Also there is no such thing as a 200hz 4k monitor, nor would even 2 Titan X's be able to keep up with multiple 4k monitors at that refresh rate, unless you're playing something super optimized (like Doom).

You can do what you're doing for half the price.



In gaming clock speed matter most when comparing processors within the same family.



No, only Xeon E5-2xxx and E7-2xxx processors can do that, aside from the fact that its a complete waste of money for gaming and will likely perform worse.

Honestly this whole thread feels like a troll, but here you go.

What do you mean by this? It won't work or are my expectations to far off?

For just gaming, anything over a 6700k, is overkill. Now if you want to record/stream gameplay, then a 6 or 8 core may make sense. Video editing, 6 and 8 core also make sense. I would go with a Crucial MX300 1.1tb, over the 850 evo. Similar real world performance, and the crucial is generally cheaper.
