for what may seem like the umpteenth time...just want to run my 99% final specs list by pc gaf to see if those more knowledgeable have any recommendations. most likely putting in the order this weekend.
There will be some Flash/Maya/Unreal/Unity work, but also some games. The next two games I'd like to get on PC, that spring to mind, are The Witcher 3 w/Xpacs and Total Warhammer next year. Ideally both would be maxed out and at 60fps etc, but I can't always tell the difference between High and Ultra, even if it has a frame rate cost and I know CA don't tend to have the most...optimized(?) or games. or it can feel like it. Anyhoo.
Case - Phanteks Enthoo Pro Mid Tower Black w/Window
Mobo - Asus X99 Pro
CPU - i7 5820k OCd
Cooler - Corsair Hydro H100i GTX
Memory - Corsair Vengeance 16gb 4x4 ddr4 2666Mhz Quad Channel
SSD - Samsung 500gb 850 EVO
HDD - Seagate 2TD 7200rpm
GPU - Asus GTX 980Ti
PSU - SuperFlower Leadex Gold 850w
Now I'd be getting a new monitor and keyboard etc too, but apart from the monitor being 1440p and gSync i'm not 100% decided on what they will be. With my aforementioned goals in mind is there anything that'd be worth it to upgrade/change? Although it's expensive anyway, changing the 980Ti to a Titan X for example isn't really on the cards
In benchmarks it doesn't seem to be worth it anyway.
I can't imagine I'd need more than 16gb ram because I can't imagine I'll be doing video editing in the next few years, or at least before the time to upgrade parts rolls around.
I don't think there's anything THAT beneficial that'd be worth the change but this community has been super useful in the past few months so just wanted to check.
cheers
