Looking for advice on a build that won't drop below 60fps on ultra settings.

[Fxmovs]

Okay so i have been planning this build for a while now and i want to be able to play games from now and the near future (2years) in ultra settings at 60fps or more without a problem. I am more or likely going to be playing hectic games like Call of duty, battle field and some racing games and tons of other multiplayer gaming. if you guys could give me some advice on what i should change and what i shouldn't it would be greatly appreciated. I don't want the build to be over $1900 with taxes.

You need a high-performance 'race car' PSU. You have selected a powerful 'mini van' PSU. Most gaming systems are GPU limited. You could save on the CPU/cooler to increase available budget elsewhere.

I live in the u.s. What psu would you recommend? and do you have any other thoughts on the build?

Well since coming from a cx series psu i would not recommend them full stop i ended up going with a corsair rmi 750i and can tell you i get no more issues of random shut downs or coil whine. scan sell them for 100 pound now. Or you could try amazon see how much they are going for.

Here's a start. What additional bits might you need. When we have everything sorted, we can decide on final GPU. This system will take a second identical GPU in SLI later for an 70% performance improvement.

I'm assuming 1080p, 60Hz, 60FPS, Ultra as your target.
