Looks nice!!

I like your rig. I have also upgraded from an X58 motherboard to a X99 motherboard and noticed that everything is so much quieter now. But then again I went away from my antec 1200 full size case with tons of fans to a smaller nzxt phantom 240 case with less fans. On top of that my new evga gtx 980's fans don't even spin until the gpu temps get about 65C so that helps too.

Hi everyone,
 
It's been awhile since I've posted here. I've been out of the computer scene for a few years since my X58 build. However, I do look at the forum from time to time haha. Anyway, I just build a new rig from the parts I bought last weekend. It took me almost the whole day to put everything together. So far I'm loving the new system and the Corsair 900D case. It's also so quite compared to the X58 rig. I haven't OC the cpu and ram yet, but will work on it soon.
 
Also, I'm still debating on whether or not I should get another 780 classified for SLI, get a single 980 classified, or just wait for the new upcoming graphics card. What do you guys think? 
 
Below are a few pix of the new rig and the parts are in my signature.

It also depends upon what type of financial budget you have for your GPU and also if you are using a single or multi-monitor setup. 

I wouldn't hesitate getting a EVGA GTX 980 Classified for a several of reasons:
1. Games just feel smoother with a 980 for some strange reason even with the same average frame rate as an overclocked GTX 780 TI. I own both a factory overclocked GTX 780 TI that's in my second rig and a stock GTX 980.
2.The extra 1 Gig of video ram is starting to help in new games.
3.The GTX 980 runs cooler than even my Gigabyte GTX 780 TI which has 3 fans on it.
4.The GTX 980 is more quiet especially since the fans don't even begin to spin until about 60-65C.
5.H.265 hardware encoder is included yet we still wait for shadowplay to officially support the new technology as it still uses the H.264 for Maxwell. Correct me if I'm wrong...
6.HDMI 2.0 with support for 4K at 60 fps.
7.You can place the old card in your other system to upgrade that computer.
8.MFAA, I mean who doesn't want another option to remove those jaggies.
 
I think those are enough reasons to get a EVGA GTX 980 Classified.
 
For me if there are more than 5 reasons to upgrade then I will. I had 2 main reasons to upgrade one of which I wanted to place the older card in my secondary computer for my kids to play on and so I could compare the two cards. The second main reason was to prove my friend wrong as he was telling me that a stock GTX 980 destroys my factory overclocked GTX 780 TI.
 
We are comparing my old card which is this one:

Compared to my new and still shiny EVGA GTX 980 with the ACX 2.0 Cooler:

I won the argument as I have both cards in question and ran the games and benchmarks which I sent him all the proof that he needed. If anyone would like me to run a specific game or benchmark then please ask me.
 
All everybody tells me is that I need to overclock my cards. I say if I had wanted to overclock my cards then I wouldn't need someone to tell me to do so. I don't overclock and I only test products that anyone would get out of box.

nice rig

Get the New Titan. 

Unless he'll be using DP, there's no need.  Just wait for the "Ti" equivalent which is a unlocked chip like the Titan X.

I'll wait on the 980 ti you save money that way

very nice rig but just wondered why maybe not go 5960x and yes if i had not been buying parts for my new rig for allmost 2 years i think i would get 4 980ti but for now i say with what i have in cards hope to be up and running soon  but very nice and clean job

I think it's the C16 version kit.
 
Just got the Titan X :P :)
