This time, I've changed my PC significantly.

CPU: I-7 5820k
CPU Cooler: Corsair h100i
GPU: R9 295X2
Case: NZXT H440 White
Motherboard: Asus X99-Deluxe
PSU: Corsair ax1500i with their white cables addon
HDD: 2x 2tb WD Green
SSD: Kingston 60GB SSD (Cache)
Optical: Generic Optical Drive

Monitors: 2 x Iiyama ProLite B2888UHSU-B1 28" 4K 60Hz 1ms
 
How come you're making such an expensive and powerful PC and not having an SSD as your main drive? You definitely need one to complete it!
 
Please do not buy the 295X2, it is a silly buy when you could have x2 970's in sli for less.

Then you do not need such a large PSU (which is over spec for a 295X2 anyway)

With the change, buy a larger SSD and a better case.


Don't like your chosen case, seen too many cooling problems with it.

^^^ would be ace, but I'm not a fan of MSI... Would rather the none ref Gigabyte 980's :), would go for superflower 1200 in stead of the corsair.


The case still sucks, esp for air flow, and double esp with 3 cards.

There are better cases mate.

I am purely going on aesthetics. What cases do you recommend that have the same looks as the h440? For around the same price
 
Why 2x4K monitors?
What RAM & why X99?

The Corsair i series PSU's are rubbish, grab yourself a Superflower/Seasonic/EVGA.

Thanks for the advice! Swapping out them out for AOC Q2770Pqu 1440p monitors.

Corsair vengeance ddr4 in red is the ram I am using. The reason i am going x99 is because of lga2011, and I need all dem cores.

I quite like corsair power supply's, but if you can reccomend anything else. I'd greatly appreciate it!
