Extreme PC Build £7000+, experts' advice needed.

[droidtc9]

I'm currently on my dream journey of building an extreme PC that's capable of 4K video editing/3D graphics animation creation and gaming at a solid 4K 60FPS+ at maximum settings (in popular titles). What I need to know is if the components of this build would work well with each other and if it would sustain performance for prolonged periods of time when gaming and editing etc.

List of specs:
COOLERMASTER COSMOS C700P TOWER GAMING CASE

Overclocked Intel® Core™ i9-7980XE 18 Core (2.60GHz @ up to 4.6GHz)

Gigabyte X299 AORUS Gaming 3 PRO: ATX

128GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3000MHz (8 x 16GB)

2 x 12GB NVIDIA TITAN XP STAR WARS JEDI ORDER

1st and 2nd Hard Disk - 2 x 2TB SEAGATE FIRECUDA 3.5" SSHD

M.2 SSD DRIVE - 2TB SAMSUNG 960 PRO M.2, PCIe NVMe

PSU - SILVERSTONE STRIDER 1500W TITANIUM MODULAR PSU

Cooling - Corsair H110i Hydro Cooler w/ PCS Liquid Series Ultra Quiet Fans (would custom loop be better?)

Sound Card - ASUS STRIX Raid DLX 7.1 PCIe sound card

Wireless Card - ASUS PCE-AC88 AC3100 2100Mbps/5GHz, 1000Mbps/2.4GHz

Windows 10 Professional 64 Bit

PS - My knowledge about these components is a bit limited which is why I am asking whether this build would work well with no issues (cooling, temps etc) and whether it is perfectly capable of both extreme editing and gaming. Thanks.

Sure it would work great. The Firecuda is a bit pointless. That would be better spent on larger HDD. You'd already have an SSD which is better than the cache on any SSHD. Larger HDD would have a greater data density and higher sequential read/write speeds.

You may want to consider a Titan V over Titan Xp SLI.

Of course. Unless you needed it now for work. I couldn't see building an ultimate gaming/editing computer this late in the nVidia Pascal product cycle.

If I had such budget, I would wait a bit for Volta GPUs to come out to make a decision. Pascal is 2 years old already and with spending such money, I'd want the best of the best. Maybe as mentioned above, a single Titan V could be an option if impatient.

You need to decide which is more important for you, either gaming or production work. If it's gaming, go with Core i7 CPU and GeForce GPU but if it's production work, go with Xeon CPU with ECC RAM and Quadro GPU.
