Oh Great and Mighty Sages of PC Wisdom, bestow your gift of feedback to this lowly noob.

You have a monster of a build!I just built my PC using almost all of your parts, and its great. I'm assuming this is just for gaming? I do have some suggestions to lower the cost of some components to get a better monitor. Do you plan on doing SLI/Crossfire or do you do a lot of video rendering? The i7 is only quad core and would suggest going with an i5 and overclocking it and 8 gigs of RAM is a good enough for gaming. I do feel the 980ti is capable of more and an upgrade to the monitor will last you longer and show off the 980ti. I would also recomend going to "This is a link sentence" and get windows 10 pro from there. I got windows 7 and had some problems with drivers, but eventually got windows 7 installed. Windows 7 doesn't have usb 3 drives built in like windows 10. Getting windows 10 will save you some headache. Check out my suggested build below, but its your PC build it how you want :D
