PCCG Overload 980 Ti SLI Gaming System Is it worth it?

[Kardox]

Hey Guys, I was looking into buying a pre assembled PC since I am in no way confident to assemble it myself, I was looking at the PCCG Overload 980 Ti SLI Gaming System - PAX 2015 and I was wondering if it seemed decent to you guys? I am planning to use my (https://www.pccasegear.com/products/30624) 4k monitor for it and I was wondering if it :
-Had enough ram, 16GB seems low
-If it was a decent price for what it is
- If it would be able to handle Ultra on games like fallout 4 on 3840x2560 screen resolution 60fps
Thank you so much for taking your time to answer this.

Assembling a build isn´t that hard, and it´s quite fun actually.

16 GB ram is more than enough.
The price is high
Ultra resolution on a 4k monitor will be hard to maintain at 60 FPS, even with SLI 980TI - you should expect 30-60fps.

SLI is tricky and its not optimized well for all games.

I have a friend with a Titan card, that gets steady 60 fps in fallout on 4k res with high settings, but only if he turns of anti-aliasing, which downgrades the experience a bit.

Here is a quickly made build for around 2100 USD, and you could pay someone to assemble it - even at a shop for around 100 USD max.

Look above, the only thing better would be SLI Titan X (the Titan Z is just too expensive to consider) - and you´re still saving money compared to the pre-built one

For reference, 4k Titan X SLI reports :

NB. Running SLI would require to revise cooler and psu.
