Hi, everyone! I am planning to build a new computer for 4k video editing, animation, and gaming, but I am not sure if the items I'm planning to buy are compatible to each other or if they will work together. Here are the specs. Can you please take a look and recommend anything?

> NZXT H440 Mid Tower Case (White)
> GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-Gaming 9 Gaming Motherboard LGA1151 Intel Z270 4-Way SLI ATX DDR4 Motherboard.
> Intel 7th Gen Intel Core Desktop Processor i7-7700K (BX80677I77700​K)
> EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FOUNDERS EDITION GAMING, 11GB GDDR5X, LED, DX12 OSD Support (PXOC) Graphic Cards 11G-P4-6390-KR
> Corsair DOMINATOR Platinum 64GB (4x16GB) DDR4 3466 (PC4-27700) C16 with Airflow for Intel 100 Series
> Intel SSD 600p Series (1.0TB, M.2 80mm PCIe 3.0 x4, 3D1, TLC)
> 2 Seagate 2TB FireCuda Gaming SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive) - 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Hard Drive (ST2000DX002)
> Corsair HXi Series, HX850i, 850 Watt (850W), Fully Modular Power Supply, 80+ Platinum Certified

Do I need anything other than these? Any other great option for SSD?

Thank you!

The 1080ti is a powerful card but 4K is a reach for most any single GPU. If your play low end games like WoW or CSGO then fine else I would suggest ultra wide 3440 X 1440 100hz. Here is a few benchmarks in 4k.

4k editing is tough.
I would go with a 8 core 16 tread processor.
Not a founders edition card.
Regular 1 TB SSD
Smaller SSD for a scratch drive.
Not a Seagate SSHD but WD black.

Thank you! This set looks good. Do you have any other recommendations that will work with the NZXT H440 Mid Tower Case? So that I have other options to choose from.

I appreciate the help.
