Makes no sense. Why do you have 2 Gracards in there?
SLI support for most games sucks, it is not worth going for SLI. A single 1080 will be good enough anyway.
Besides you would need 2 times the same card, same clock speed etc. otherwise it won't work.

I'd be sure to get an 80+ Gold or Platinum Power Supply to provide some reliable power to those high end components. Also be sure to have a very nice cooling system, including multiple fans on the case to help circulate the hot air. It's paramount that something like that doesn't overheat, lol

Are you going to be going with 144hz monitor(s) or no?

god damn, Anthony is smart, he was able to get the shit AEF to tie with the best reg in the game. The tactical geniusness needed to pull off such a feat is insane. He's the Erwin Rommel of NW.

Tbh, the only reason to buy a 1080 right now is if you want to do 4k gaming.
Otherwise the 980ti, which is currently only 420 euros (750 earlier this year...) is more than good enough.

Hmm, can you list some powerful coolers? I have a TV as monitor now. Ppl advised me to buy a normal monitor pc screen but thats something for later.

Anything from corsairs  closed water cooling line is good. I have the old H80i, this is the new version.

Or just buy a good silent fan cooler...

And TV monitors are usualy the worst. Their refresh times are shit. They arent made for realtime.

I mean if he is going to pay 3 grand for a PC skipping on cooling is pointless. Not to mention if you replace the stock fans on a radiator like I did the thing ramped up is still quieter than my GPU fans.

So just buy a good Aircooled solution. There are a bunch of problems with Watercooled systems that you don't have with aircooled ones.

Theres nothing wrong with a closed watercooled loop. You never need to change the water and the H80i costs around the same as a good air cooled solution but with up to 30-40% better performance not to mention a better overclock if he chose.

Why?
i do not know how to describe it in English but the graphics look like there is a bit of dust on it. Also i cant even play warband with max graphics without a good fps. Etc. Lags a lot.

And thanks for giving a bit of info about these coolers. Corsairs look good. Is that one you posted a quiet one? :)

What do you mean with refresh times on tv monitors?
