Here is the build: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Sanctyy suggested this one.
Thanks to DCFC - Alexyy - Zayev - Crustyy - Sanctyy
Mainly going for Ultra settings on 1440p resolution may upgrade to 4k some time.
Will purchase SSD and more ram at a later stage.
What do you guys think before I purchase the parts from scan?
Also, has the gtx 980 ti only just been released? Since it's on a pre-order from Scan.
Thanks guys.

Ayy ;)
The other suggestions are better rigs overall but they have lower end GPUs and/or monitors, this way you get a better monitor and GPU, and you can add an SSD at some point and you'll have a great rig.
980Ti is a new card, that's why it's mostly reference coolers right now. A lot of them are sold out, so you'll just need to try find one in stock somewhere, or just pre-order one for when they do come back in stock. Make sure to check all of the 980Ti's on Scan, some come back in stock before others, so just grab whichever one is in stock quickest, for the lowest price. They're all going to be the same anyway, so it doesn't matter which one you get.

What is a non-reference cooler? I haven't purchased the parts yet.
