Hello Everybody

Was thinking of upgrading to a pre-made system this time. Would you mind checking the below and telling me where i am going wrong if at all.

I intend to ask OC to remove the GPU as i want to use my 2x 980TI

Now where's that Unwanted for Graphics card when you need one...

What particular 980 Tis you have?
Worst ones go toward 300w consumption in which case I would be looking for step bigger PSU.

And are you using speakers or headphones?
In later case you might want to consider sound card for binaural-sound or at least motherboard with bundled Creative's software...
Sometimes accidents happen and motherboard maker bundles it with something actually useful.

The one question i have is the nand drive seems to cheap on the page is there a reason or is it a mistake i can take advantage of

Don't re-use that old PSU. Get a 1000W PSU to play it safe and not put too much load on it so it lasts longer. Ditch the GPU. Rest of the build looks good.
Also, I noticed "Unwanted" beside case lighting. Get some case lighting. It looks great, especially in a glass side panel case. Go cheap and get a white light in there if you want. It looks good. RGB is better obv.

I would change the memory to a different brand which uses Samsung b die rather than Hynix as it will run faster.
