A noobs quest to build a gaming rig
 

First post here and im looking for guidance. Plan on building a gaming rig soon and would like some input on the parts i've choosen. This is planned as a strictly gaming build.
CPU: i7-4790k
CPU COOLER: Corsair h100i gtx
MOBO: Asus Maximus VII Hero
MEM: Corsair Vengeance Pro 16gb
STORAGE: Samsung 850 evo 500gb ssd, WD Black Series 2tb
GPU: Planning on getting the new Asus 980ti Strix, possible sli in the future
CASE: Corsair C70
PSU: EVGA 850 gold
OS: Guessing windows 10 when it comes out.

Any comments or what not are greatly welcome

Does that case take 140mm fans? I have a couple of new ones if you need them. I was going to use them for the Dimastech build but went with 120mm gentle typhoons instead.

What monitor?

oh yeah, PICS!!!

The case brings 3 120mm fans. Not sure if it fits the 140mm. Monitor wise looks like im going with the Asus ROG Swift pg278q or the new pg27aq. Cant seem to be able to load pics of the case.

I find myself running out of space on my os drive pretty quick with the size of each game I have loaded up on the drive. 500gb big enough for the games you have plus growth?

Thats plenty of machine for gaming and I don't see needing SLI anytime soon with the 980ti. Windows 10 + DX12 should be a boon to performance as well.

(fixed yer post for yah)

Thanx for the image help. Not sure bout drive space. Never been a pc gamer. Currently game on my ps4. Recently got a itch to build a pc so here i am. 500gb should last me a bit. Could always buy another sad if i need room to grow. How are you liking the Rog swift?

Its a whole new experience with the swift. Can't say if its the 144mhz or the g-sync but its liquid smooth gaming.

Now if they had it in a 2560x1600 resolution.....Nerdvana

Not being a gamer, I won't have much to add.

But I really like that clean looking Corsair case. Wonder if they make a version with a windowless side panel? Front USB/etc. ports up high are nice for us rebels who keep our cases on the floor amidst all the dust.

Solid looking build.

The new pg27aq is supposed to be 4k at 60hz. Asus also unveiled a new 34" ultrawide curved monitor 3440x1440 resolution. not sure when either of these are supposed to release

x34 and x35 Predator. I think its like 100mhz. Google help me finish this...
