right now youve formed you opinion i want you to post it below.

the rationale behind this build is;

i want something thats mega powerful

will be more than powerful enough to play beamng (more cores = better 4 beamng)

upgradeable to the max,

not so much bragging rights.

thank you for you time

and no this build is proposal, something i want to build, and i will be working hard to afford this pc

 

While your build is well out of a good price to performance ratio, it's a good build for the price. Although, for that much storage, I recommend you ditch the 850 EVO and buy 3 2TB HDD and set them up in RAID. You'll have much more storage, and while write times will be slower, your read speeds will be faster, and you'll be thanking me when a drive fails. Also, pure opinion here, but with something as badass as that, I'd use a case as badass as the Corsair 900D, but that's just me.

Doesn't mean you need two 1080s in SLI, just saying.

Uhh, you've got almost nothing you can upgrade. You've got dual flagship GPUs, an enthusiest grade CPU, and more RAM and storage than you'll probably ever need. But you do you.

 

uhhhhhh what was your first thought?

dual 1080s so i dont have to buy another later

idk how to raid is it easy? primarily need read speeds?

900D too expensive and too big

upgrading later one in a couple years

 

>Simple case is too expensive
>Dual 1080's

 

First thought was: You're either a doctor, in the profession of content creation, just won the lottery, or insane.

One 1080 is plenty enough for gaming. RAID is fairly easy to set up, as long as you have a motherboard that supports it.

>900D too expensive
>Is paying more for motherboard than I did my entire gaming rig


Question: What do you plan to play with this rig?

 

Mfw i watched @Funky7Monkey get that rig for 4 dollars(hes one of my irl friends). Unless its another machine i dont know about

 

the motherboard has plenty of rear USB ports so thats it

im just a british college student (computing) who has ) money and its to prove to myself i can save money and stuff.

but 2 1080s look better than one

uh, it will be used for video creation and gaming, and streaming ,

yes the case is too big , and i prefer the aesthetic of the phanteks evolve ATX
