ASAP Spec Check Required Please

[Khrest]

I've decided to put together a new setup to replace my ageing Sandy Bridge build. I am going to be gaming at 1440p, hoping to max out at 60fps with AA on current titles, also looking for the quietest setup possible. I also want to be ready to SLI if required later.

No Windows as I have access to a code already and no media drive required.

Are there any issues with the following before I click the button?

Save £40 there.

850W would be fine but sure, 1000W won't hurt.

And Skylake is dual channel memory, so unless you want four sticks for some reason, you could pick a set of two.

Thanks mate. I've adjusted the data drive and added the bundle. Do I get any real advantage going to 32gb dual channel or save £90 and stick with 16gb do you think?

Is 850w definitely enough for 2x overclocked 980ti's and the other stuff in the spec?

From what I read on other forums, there should be enough PCIE lanes for x8/x8 on the graphics and x4 on the M.2.
