like the title says i have 4 grand im gonna spend on a pc but am stuck on a few things.
Firstly here is a rough list of parts so far http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/di4medollaz/saved/kvp2F...
Intel i7 5820k
asus rampage V extreme X99 motherboard
corsair hydro h100i heatsink
G.Skill Ripjaws Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4-3000 Memory
EVGA supernova 1300 watt power supply
WD SE 3tb 7200 rpm hard drive
WD Red 4tb hard drive
SSD samsung evo 250gb
Case ??
Video card "gonna use ny sli gtx 680 until 8 series comes out wich is 2 months"
So this build seems good but here is where i am worried and need profesional help.
The DDR4 ram is all the same price for all the speeds , the 2400 , 2666 , and the 3000 are all the same price , wich speed should i get? i dont want something that im gonna have to fiddle with all the time or have to change default settings in bios , i just want something that will be stable and work well. Wich should i buy?
The motherboard i want top notch and there are 3 flagship choices , the MSI X99S GAMING 9 AC $449 or the Asus RAMPAGE V EXTREME x99 $539 or the Gigabyte GA-X99-GAMING G1WIFI $389 and of course the asus deluxe $419
I dont care about the price i want the motherboard with the most features and the most future proof as well as alot of sata and usb 3 inputs and most important reliability
" like the color on the rampage"
The last concern is there is like no M.2 ssd's around is there? should i just buy a cheap samsung evo until a very fast M.2 ssd comes out?
Also i plan on color matching black and red and dont have a clue what case too buy. The corsair 900d looks like i can put alot of extra red fans in and have good room but it looks so plain , the other 2 is the awsome looking NZXT H440 ATX Mid Tower wich would match PERFECT but it looks so small and the Thermaltake Level 10 GT E-ATX Modular Tower Case wich is in black or white and can change led colors
Any input on each of these questions would be very greatfully apreciated , i wanna get the best pc i can possibly get no matter the cost

To address your first concern: Get the fastest RAM!!!! You shouldn't have to fiddle with it at all!! As for the motherboard I would not hesitate at all and pick the ASUS. Wait till M.2 is main stream and a good amount of companies are offering their M.2 SSDs. Oh and for the case I like the read NZXT Phantom. Even if you wanted the H440 you cant fit LGA 2011-3 boards in. They are EATX which means EATX and these will only fit in full tower cases which the H440 is not.

SO the build is look like this so far?
*EDIT* Dont get SP fans they are meant for CPU coolers and places where airflow is very restricted. For cases, AF120s are suggested instead. And Since this is a full tower I believe you can use AF140s which are basically the same price. AF140s come in a wide array of LED colors too so you can get get LED AF140s

This is how I would build your system for your budget... And just so you know, this is in the lines of the system I run now. The only difference is I have 32gb of RAM and the MOBO is different.

Price breakdown by merchant: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/3VQzpg/by_merchant/
CPU: Intel Core i7-5930K 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($609.99 @ Memory Express) <-- X99 6 core beast really all you need and much, much more!
CPU Cooler: Swiftech H220 55.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler ($149.99 @ NCIX) <-- Best CLC you can get on the market today, it does show up at les than $100 nearly every week.
Motherboard: Asus X99-DELUXE ATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard ($417.93 @ DirectCanada) <-- Great MOBO and new.. The latest and greatest
Memory: Corsair DOMINATOR Platinum 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4-2666 Memory ($484.99 @ Memory Express) <-- Built for all Asus systems as both companies worked together.

All SSD's usually go for $119 wait for their new pricing.
Storage: Western Digital VelociRaptor 1TB 3.5" 10000RPM Internal Hard Drive ($238.95 @ Vuugo) <-- Games data

Video Card: Asus Radeon R9 290X 4GB Video Card ($638.50 @ Vuugo) <-- Best card $$ for $$ you can get, until the R9 295x2 hits -$500.00 then we are talking the best card $$ for $$ at $1000.00
Case: Corsair 900D ATX Full Tower Case ($319.00 @ Canada Computers) <- the only way to get better is going with a CaseLabs, and they are worth every dollar… but they start at $399 for bare bones.
Power Supply: Corsair 1200W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($329.99 @ Memory Express) <-- All the power needed and more for expanding… Well worth it.

Yep and the way it is set up with that 1 card will run just about anything full tilt.
I run 3 27" 2 x 1080p and 1 1440p with a 2gb Eyefinity Asus 6970. As a matter of fact, I am playing Skyrim as I write this. If you set the system up right as above, you can do just about anything with it. And if need be in the future if wanted just drop in a 2nd card, but I never had to.

Don't even build a system for 4K yet, the formatting for media security is still in it's infancy, even the 4K TV's people are buying now may need an adapter to work and anything with HDMI 2 or DP 2 will not work, so don't try and future proof it, and the new standard is not backwards compatible with anything built today.

Asus P6T Delux (switched to the Sabertooth x58 in July 2010) $340, i7 920 (step 0) $520, Zaleman 9500 CPU Cooler $80, 16gb Dominator RAM $730, 2 Velociraptors 600gb (it was $1200 for the drives) 2 WD 500gb Data drives $230, Asus 4870 Top $580, Seasonic 800w PSU $310, Cooler Master Cosmos S $279, gigabit card (really a 10/100) $70, and linksys wireless pre-n card $199 = $4538 so I was a little over $4500 but well worth it.
System is still running today as a media hub/server.

The "plates" or CPU blocks are what determine the cooling of a CPU. Because the LGA2011-3 has the same surface area as the LGA2011 the same heat sink "water block" can be used. the difference is the amount of cores can create more heat, so you want to have a cooler that will distribute more efficiently. i.e push the air and fluid better to optimize cooling dynamics.

lol no one really answered my questions , i am gonna wait n the m.2 ssd's and get a cheap samsung evo 250gb for now and the WD SE 7200 RPM 4tb's are fine for my data, dont need velicoraptors
I am confused as too wich mobo too get , im leaning on the rampage extreme x99 but the MSI one sure looks nice and with features not on any other mobo but i dunno if i trust MSI.
And the ddr4 3000 ram will work fine out of the box with no fiddling? the 2666 and 2333 are basicly same speed , maybe 1% difference and are all same price.
As for a case the x99 asus rampage is huge , i like the corsair 900d but its just so plain!! The Thermaltake Level 10 GT E-ATX Modular Tower Case looks awsome and is a massive case but will it fit the mobo?
If i do go the 900d i will need to pick out partsthat make it look awsome like color matched fans and lights. I want something unique though thats flashy and screams that its a beast computer , i like mountain mods cases but i dont know how to build one nor can see one before i buy one.
