So I have a limit of £1000 left to build the rest of my PC I got a nice deal on a MSI GTX 980 Ti Twin Frozr 6G.
I need the rest of the PC. I have already got Peripherals and Monitors.
I want this computer for 90% gaming and 10% porn lol.
I already have the graphics card but if there is a better one that I should have got please list it too.

Pretty beefy rig, X99 for OP processing, could change the case to an Enthoo Pro if you have big plans in the future;
3-way SLI support;

If you didn't want to spend the whole £1000, you can change the cooler to the Kraken X61 if you don't mind spending a bit more, you could get a bigger SSD etc;

No need for X99 in a gaming rig. 1000W PSU is a pointless waste of money, it's OP for 2-way SLI, and just won't support 3-way SLI. Either just get an 850W unit and save the money, or if you want 3-way SLI support, you'll need to get an 1100+W unit.

Go with this build.
If you want a "stealthier" case then go with [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] same case in Sanctorum's build just blacked out.

Enthoo Pro M is smaller than the Enthoo Pro. It's also different on the inside. Enthoo Pro M is a bit more like the Enthoo EVOLV on the inside, with Enthoo Pro external aesthetics. Enthoo Pro is bigger and better, but the Enthoo Pro M is a great case for the price, and a better choice if you need to save some space.

If I got the wrong one then what would be the best one.

If you had the money for a 980 Ti, then yes it was the smartest option, thank god you didn't buy a Titan.

980Ti is a fine choice. If you're going to go with either of Chang's suggestions, at least grab a decent 1100W unit or 850W unit instead. The 1000W unit is a waste. 850W is enough for 2-way SLI 980Ti with OC. 1000W isn't going to cut it for 3-way SLI 980Ti. The 6700k is going to perform better in gaming than a 5820k, and there's absolutely no reason to go with Haswell any more so that Xeon option is not worth it, you'd be better off getting a Sylake Xeon if you're not OC'ing the CPU.

The 6700K may perform better in gaming than what a 5820K would but for the price the difference between the two is minimal in gaming. £20 more for 50% more cores and threads. I wouldn't even be thinking about Z170 if I was given the choice.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] - Z170
Those links are just examples for both platforms.. not suggesting any builds.
