Overkill build, what do you think?

It doesn't let me customize it otherwise I would have taken away the 680s and added 690s.

that is better base machine. again if you ring OC im sure they will swap out the 680's for 690's for an extra cost. also can ask them to add in a 4tb drive if you wish

also the 4 680's run hotter and draw more power than 2 690's so if you can afford them they are the better option

Well the chaps at OcUK can pretty much use that as a base and go from there. rjkoneill and NathWraith should be your first port of call.

I have sent them an e-mail but will most likely call them tomorrow morning.

I was going to order off another site but this seems better and a more active forum as well.

I just want that build to change the CPU to a 3930K and the cards, hopefully it will have the CPU and GPU overclocked and be fully watercooled I will be very happy.
 
Mine seems quite sensible now:

A lot of Corsair going on, it wasn't intentional.
You'd need a RAID controller for those drives, but i don't know anything about RAID, and they all seem to be out of stock.
 
Are there any MOBO's out there better than an Asus Rampage Extreme?

due to the price of said chip i havent seen much on here about it, but id imagine they would get around 5GHZ if its a max overclock like it says, might even be higher, every single chip is different though, so go really high some dont, its just pot luck, so they would max that chip till its stable. which as i said before i would have thought to be around the 5GHz mark

One last question, well a two-part question, as you've said I can take parts away and add, if for example I chose the http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-093-OP&groupid=43&catid=2385&subcat=2238 since it is watercooled will I have to fill the reservoir myself or will it be ready to go?

How safe is it as I don't want it leaking and ruining a 4k+ PC.

IIRC in the past it has been pre-filled, but I'm willing for people to correct me. I wouldn't imagine so nowadays, the life of a package can be pretty brutal at times.

Filling a loop is easy, don't worry.
