I'd have different tastes with the keyboard, and the monitor isn't for competitive gaming, but yeah. Here you go.

Same.

Thanks for the changes. Is it a bad thing if the monitor isn't competitive? I like to use curved displays. Also is going 4-way sli
worth it?

Nope. Two way is the best. Three way only in certain games.

Up to you if it isn't. Idk what games you play. Get 1440p @ 144hz monitor since you clearly have the money.
 
i dont understand your choice in case or wifi access point. please elaborate on why you want to spend a grand on both
 
Jesus christ, next time don't select literally every part as the most expensive available on PCPP.

OT: I don't see anything wrong with Fiesta's build except for that fucking expensive as shit case. Buy it if you wish, but you can get quality cases for -500 that. If you require actual help in making a build THAT expensive, look somewhere else such as Tom's Hardware, many very knowledgeable users on that site.

I like the way the case looks, though I have others in mind, I mainly look for cases that expose most of the inner parts. As for the wifi access point. Its what the technician from my internet provider suggested.
 
Wait. What in the fuck are you trying to do with this thing?
 
I am asking for specifics. Having a specific software set that he is wanting to use will help pick better parts for the build. If he is doing something with heavy CAD, it may be better to switch from a Geforce to a workstation Quadro card.

Im Using CAD,Rhino 3d,Autodesk Suite,Maya,Cinema 4D,Photoshop CS6 extended, and a few other ones.
 
Okay. The i7 is primarily geared toward gamers and enthusiasts. Would you like to bump up to a Xeon processor instead?
 
Quadro seems to becoming more and more of a luxury, GRANTED, he is spending a lot of money, but still.

Editing part list for a 3x monitor and xeon build.



PCPartPicker part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/jrzzrH

Price breakdown by merchant: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/jrzzrH/by_merchant/

CPU: Intel Xeon E5-2699 V3 2.3GHz 18-Core OEM/Tray Processor  ($3966.99 @ SuperBiiz) 

Nothing will beat this. Besides two of them.

CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X61 106.1 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler  ($129.99 @ Amazon) 

Highest rated AIO water cooler for sub 20db, plenty of more options.

Motherboard: Asus X99-PRO/USB 3.1 ATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard  ($309.99 @ Amazon)

Just a good mobo with USB 3.1, the differences between the x99 mobos are minimal, I like Asus for branding.
 
Memory: Kingston 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4-2666 Memory  ($198.17 @ Amazon) 
Memory: Kingston 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4-2666 Memory  ($198.17 @ Amazon) 

Not a whole lot of performance to be seen over 32GB of RAM. Feel free to go with higher freq. and more GB, but that's entirely your choice.

Storage: Intel 750 Series 1.2TB PCI-E Solid State Drive  ($999.99 @ Amazon) 

For programs, games, your OS, and other important shite.

Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 4TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive  ($202.85 @ Amazon) 

For your files. Get another one if you need more storage.

Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB Video Card  ($659.99 @ Amazon) 

Quadro, IMO and other's opinions, is a little bit of a luxury. If you honestly want to use it, go with one or two K5200s from PNY, or get the $4999.99 one also from PNY. (From my understanding it's the difference between like .0004909 and .00049) I'm sure I butchered that.) This is merely a placeholder for the Asus 980 ti Strix, which is simply just quieter and offers more overclocking. Get another if you'd like, gaming should be relatively flawless after two of them.

Case: Phanteks Enthoo Luxe ATX Full Tower Case  ($149.99 @ Amazon) 

Your case was dumb. Feel free to get it. 
I really like this one, quiet too, with an LED function.

Power Supply: Corsair AX1500i 1500W 80+ Titanium Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply  ($400.64 @ Amazon) 

No pasaran. 

Monitor: Asus VG248QE 144Hz 24.0" Monitor  ($249.99 @ Amazon) 
Monitor: Asus VG248QE 144Hz 24.0" Monitor  ($249.99 @ Amazon) 
Monitor: Asus VG248QE 144Hz 24.0" Monitor  ($249.99 @ Amazon) 
Other: Ergotech Triple Desk Stand ($207.36 @ Amazon)

Again, more of a personal choice. It's a bit cheaper, has better performance, and offers a bit more functionality. The deskstand offers up to 27" monitors and if you'd like to get a bigger one for the center, go with the ASUS RoG Swift PG278Q. Or ignore my suggestion completely and get your fancy curved monitor.

Keyboard: Das Keyboard 4 Professional Wired Standard Keyboard  ($169.00 @ Amazon) 
Mouse: Logitech G502 Wired Optical Mouse  ($59.13 @ Amazon) 

Peripherals should be chosen by you, but here are two of the top rated, overall great, mouse and keyboard which are good for both gaming and work. I have lots of keyboard suggestions for you but I'm an enthusiast and the Das is just perfect without going overboard.

You're on your own for network shite, ask Sass for his recommendations.

Honestly I'd pump a 64GB kit into that thing. It will need it.
