LOL @ the fail GFX card promotion.

Watchdogs does not work with SLI XD

But yea looks like the rig will last you quite a while.

 

[Darth Revan]

thats my main reason for buying for longevity

 

[Baaja]

But how long do you intend this spec to last for you? I know you are a professional but does this high price warrant the performance and longevity you seek? just a question based on my curiosity because I can't even fathom paying that amount of money for a computer!

Heh im gonna last about that long with half those specs.

well at best half 90% of my games wont lag with these specs xD except gmod using nukes lol

Mine wont either. I dont mind turning down the GFX options untill i get a lag free experience. "Screw the graphics, PC has options"

lol i'l never buy a pc without a ssd anymore...
ditch a titan and get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147248

other than that it looks fine.
even though i'm not really an amd fan

for cpu i'd rather take the i7 4790 or just wait for the 8 cores from intel.
they should be commin soon and i got a feeling they'll blow amd away lol.
but offcourse intel is gonna be more expensive.

But do yourself a favor and get a friggin ssd really lol

--- edit ---

and as far as the mouse goes...
this will be my next one :F

My reaction to the specs ----------->

 

[Z Power]

Really good specs.

Personally I would've waited a couple months for the next set of cards from Nvidia, since the 8xx series are rumored to be big upgrades from the current gen. Considering they will be priced withing the same range, I feel they would have offered more "bang for your buck" future proofing.

At the very least, the release of the next set would've lowered the pricing on the current versions.

 

[Plakman]

i think that the only real upgrade over a titan z will be that the 800 series will support directx 12 (microsoft solution for mantle)

 

[Darth Revan]

i might just wait then for the new cards

 

[Deverz]

Titans are overpriced anyway

 

[Darth Revan]

i did think they where a bit much

 

[Z Power]

i might just wait then for the new cards

Good stuff. Am waiting to upgrade my GPU as well. I want to make sure Arkham Knight and Witcher 3 run their best.

 

[Plakman]

i'm saving up for the new intel octa cores, 800 series and ddr4 ram modules.
i hope they release it all at the start of 2015.
