I am planning to build a new computer for Christmas time and I have a budget of £2000 roughly ($3131.50 at the time of conversion). I have put together a system I am happy with and I would really appreciate it if you could give me some recommendations and feedback on what to change etc. The computer would only be used for gaming and a little content creation but nothing serious on a large scale. I know its overkill for the needs of what I want it for but I like overkill :L
I also plan to buy another 980 in the future and run them in SLI for those who were wondering. Do you think this system is too overkill for what I need? and am I wasting my money when I would get the same FPS with cheaper components? Sort of games I intend to play are Far Cry 4, assassins creed unity, call of duty etc. Also only in 1080p (planning to upgrade to 4K in the near future). Also I really like the look of the reference design 980's but are there any major benefits to going to an after market cooler?
Here is the PC part picker link: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/vjmYbv
The graphics card I plan to install is not on PC part picker either so here is the link to that: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-204-OK
Many thanks, Connor.
