I want a few sets of eyes to look over my build list and see if there is anything I am missing or should change. Used for Gaming/4k/VR also will be doing editing and similar stuff.

CPU: I7 6800K
CPU Cooler: Corsair H115i
GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 1080 OC Edition
Motherboard: MSA X99A Gaming Pro Carbon ATX
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32GB
SSD: Samsung 850 PRO 1TB
Case : Phanteks Enthloo Luxe ATX full tower
Power: EVGA 850W ATX

Will want to hook it up to 3 monitors
This is my first legit build and any help from experienced would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for any help!

Your case comes with all the necessary fans you need to keep everything cool.

However, if you're set on getting the best you can, I would recommend picking up a set of the new mag-lev fans from Corsair (ML Pro series) to replace the ones it comes with. They're available in 120mm or 140mm and have great performance and low noise.

You'll want 3x 140mm fans for that case (2 in the front, 1 in the rear) to compliment your radiator up top.

What will this pc be primarily used for?
Do you have a budget?

There might be some better options.

FWIW, particularly for a first time builder, I would not recommend liquid cooling.
My canned rant on liquid cooling:
------------------------start of rant-------------------
You buy a liquid cooler to be able to extract an extra multiplier or two out of your OC.
How much do you really need?
I do not much like all in one liquid coolers when a good air cooler like a Noctua or phanteks can do the job just as well.
A liquid cooler will be expensive, noisy, less reliable, and will not cool any better
in a well ventilated case.
Liquid cooling is really air cooling, it just puts the heat exchange in a different place.
The orientation of the radiator will cause a problem.
If you orient it to take in cool air from the outside, you will cool the cpu better, but the hot air then circulates inside the case heating up the graphics card and motherboard.
If you orient it to exhaust(which I think is better) , then your cpu cooling will be less effective because it uses pre heated case air.
And... I have read too many tales of woe when a liquid cooler leaks.
google "H100 leak"

Your pc will be quieter, more reliable, and will be cooled equally well with a decent air cooler.
