I've been researching for the past few days, and finally come up with a configuration for my first custom PC. Is it okay? Will it overheat or anything? I'm going to be gaming on ultra settings and doing some 3D rendering.

Looks good to me.
Don't know the monitor/s you'll be using, but that is a strong build. Definitely shouldn't be any heating issues. Good luck. |

Very nice build, I'd swap out the titan for 2 980's if it was my rig, or even 3 980's if you still want the 12 gigs of graphics, but thats just my preference, you'll get all the performance you want out the single titan.

980 SLI faster, more expensive Titan X slower than 980 SLI, but cheaper, and won't have SLI issues ( which I have experienced from time to time) Then there's 980 TI SLI, but too soon to know how that's going to pan out? |
