The term overkill means it is more than you need, you wont be killing your system.

If you want a good 4K gaming system and plan to keep it for 5-6 years then dual 980Tis would be better cost wise than a single Titan X.

Once again Hello everyone,
Actually as I have ordered all the computer parts three days ago, so I'm collecting video of how install particular part safely, so first of all any tips that to be taken care of any things and secondly while surfing youtube I came to jaytwocents work of skunkworks pc V3, so here are my question regarding his work:

>> Is it good to mix colors in water?
>> If yes should I go with this work?
>> Do we have to take extra care of anything in this kind of work?
>> How much will it cost and in India are these parts available, if yes can you provide me names with link(amazon.in if possible)?

>> And lastly If your reply is no so, do I need anything extra like reservoir, tubes, etc i.e. apart from my current rig?(I'm asking this again because I don't have any kind of tubes, pipes, reservoir or any thing like that for water cooling as I've ordered one cooler thats it.)

Well the Titan X is a waste TBH. You don't need 12GB of VRAM and a single Titan X wont be able to do 4K @60FPS. A better option would be a single 980Ti or two 980Tis in SLI if you want 60FPS for 4K (even then it wont be able to in all games). If you are fine with 30FPS @ 4K then drop the Titan X and move to the 980Ti to save a bit of money especially since the 980Ti is about 1-2% behind the Titan X in most cases.

The only other things I would change personally is the keyboard to a Corsair K95 RGB and the mouse to the Logitech G502 Proteus Core.

Depending on the game the 980 ti is actually faster than the Titan X in a lot of cases. Of course workstation use is a completely different story, but gaming the 980 ti is almost always better due to its higher clock.

Here is a link, but there are plenty more out there.

Keep in mind when I say the 980 ti is better I am not referring to the reference 980 ti. You can easily get an overclocked 980 ti for less than $50 more. I myself got an Asus strix 980 ti and that increases performance by about 20% and that is how it blows away the titan x.

4K is such a waste. I don't think it looks that good. Why someone would spend that much money just to say they play on 4K is beyond me. 2560X1440 is where its at for gaming.

Hi thanks for your suggestion but this is my first gaming pc and I'm excited too so maybe you are right but I can spend on 4k, so I'll go with titan x as this card also support 5k resolution, so its a good thing for me because I can play games with this card for a long time lets say for 5 years.

An overlclocked 980 ti blows away a titan x...at 1080p or at 4k....you can pick a 980 ti overlclocked for about $50 more than the reference, but still hundreds of dollars less than a titan x..I picked up the asus strix 980 ti OC by 20% for only $650 and I can say that it was the best decision I've made....
