serious build .
if you like, you can cut down some on the price (for example, get a 1000W PSU) to get 2133Mhz RAMs. unless you are planning on quad SLi in the future.

 

[Computerchap]

If it's primarily for gaming an i7 is overkill, i5 will be fine. Other than that, that pc will last for years.

What monitors are you running with that?

 

[Duiwe1000]

I will be running a 4k monitor at 3840x2160 res
I will also be doing video editing and 3d rendering
Anas Bashar I will look into that never thought of that thx

 

[Anas Bashar]

you are welcome.
good luck.

 

[Duiwe1000]

Do any of you guys think I should wait until a later stage to purchase another gtx 780 or should I do it now

 

[Computerchap]

Right now one 780 will run anything on ultra, you'll be good for at least 2 years with one.

 

[Duiwe1000]

Ok I thought the same thing you just helped me save a lot of money thx dude

 

[Computerchap]

No problem mate, have fun!

 

[Duiwe1000]

I don't what to do because I went with a custom water cooling but I will only cool my cpu for now I bought the xspc raystorm ex420 kit but my supplier told me that the hav x isn't going to work and that I should go for the corsair 800d what do you guys think

[Computerchap]

I don't know too much about water cooling so I can't really help you there.

 

[Duiwe1000]

I have changed this build since my dad gave me a bigger budget so what do you guys think now
Motherboard : asus maximus vi formula lga 1150 socket
Graphics card: msi gtx 780 lightning
Ram: g-skill sniper 8gb(2x4) kit two of those
Storage: primary-ocz vertex 450 256gb ssd
Secondary-Seagate barracuda 3tb hhd
CPU:intel core I7-4770k lga 1150 socket
Watercooling custom loop:xspc 750 420 watercooling kit
Psu:corsair ax1200i 1200 watt
Cd drive: lg 24x DVD reader/writer
Case:corsair obsidian 800d

 

[Duiwe1000]

Might be looking into another msi gtx 780 that will run in sli

 

[Computerchap]

Two 780's would last a long time.

 

[Duiwe1000]

Should I go with gtx 780 or get the 780ti is it worth the extra money

 

[Duiwe1000]

I am also looking into changing that corsair 800d to a Cooler master cosmos ii I know the corsair is a very good case but and it hurts me saying this since I am huge corsair fan it looks dull and boring and the way Cooler master describes that cosmos ii ''The smooth, brushed aluminum touch of the side panels unlock and swing open like the doors of a luxurious race-car'' what do you guys think should I go with corsair or cooler master and keep in my I will be one 360mm rad and one 240mm and from what I have read the corsair needs some mods to fit the 240mm in the basement.It will be a custom loop

 

[Computerchap]

Go with the cosmos if that will make you happy. Also, the 780 ti is around titan performance, it will be worth it.

Thank you you have helped me a lot and saved me a couple of bucks that I went and spent on better ram thx again dude

No problem

 

[Duiwe1000]

Ok guys i was doing some research on this gtx 780ti and got some interesting results tell me what you guys think and if you think i should stay with the 780 or go with the ti version

FPS benchmarks
GTX 780 780TI

bio-shock infinite-Max:61.28 Max:72.12
Min:46 Min:57

Crysis 3 -Max:35.04 Max:39.36
Min:4 -_- Min:34

Skyrim -Max:39.12 Max:45.48
Min:30 Min:32

Metro last light -Max:35.75 Max:45.56
Min:14.8 Min:11

Gtx780 average of 42.8 FPS and the min FPS a average of 23.7
GTX 780ti average of 50.6 FPS and the min FPS a average of 33.5
So that is only a 7.8 FPS improvement on the max FPS and a 9.8 FPS on the min i don't see that as such a big diffrence for the 200 dollars more or is it a improvement for that amount of money and all that games were run at max settings.

 

[Duiwe1000]

O yea I can also say one thing if my info is correct that sure as hell ain't a 25% increase in performance....?!
