Is this a good build or is it overpriced nonsense?

For what purpose?

>>54890470
Mostly video editing and graphic design, but also gayming and 4k porn.

>>54890450
It's good. That's a lot of money though also be prepared when nvidia gimps your shit

>nvidia

Just wait a bit until AMD releases their rx 490 or whatever.

>i7

Wait for Zen?

>32gb of RAM

why

>>54890450
Mobo is expensive as hell and I don't think you need such a large PSU either.

>>54890450
Why the fuck would anyone buy into X99?

>>54890470

Forgot to mention that I also want an emulation machine, so playing Wii games should be possible.
I'm using amd fx 8350 right now and had to learn the hard way that they're not meant for emulation.
Didn't want to go with AMD this time but I'm open for everything.

>>54890536
Because not everyone is a gaymer. X99 multithreaded performance blows anything 1151 can throw at it.

The 6950x at 4GHz scores 22.78 in Cinebench R11.5
The 6700k at 4.8GHz scores ~11.5

Which means the scaling on the 6950x works damn near perfectly. 10 cores, 20 threads and it's more than doubling the performance of the 6700k a 4 core, 8 thread CPU clocked 800MHz faster.

So for rendering, encoding, and other CPU bound tasks that can use more threads, X99 makes a LOT more sense than Z170.

If you're gaming, obviously Z170 makes more sense because almost no game uses more than 4 cores and Skylake has higher IPC by about 5%.

It's an impressive build. I wish I was rich as shit, I'm over here struggling with spending $1300.

3000 euro sheckels ? Why do you need 500 for ?

OP, this guy is talking nonsense. Ignore him.

why go full retard on everything then get a cheap SSD?

>>54890749
Unless he is doing really intense I/O work, pretty much any SSD will be suitable.

>>54890770
If he can justify a ~400 euro motherboard surely he can get a 512GB 950 Pro which has insane sequential performance (which I assume is relevant to video editing?)

>>54890827
>which I assume is relevant to video editing?
working on RAW 4k, 5k, or 8k files could do it. But even those you'd probably not be bottle necked by a decent SATA 3 SSD.

>>54890827
If he cared about video editing in the first place he wouldn't be getting a gaymen card, he'd get a quadro or some shit like that

>>54890906
>video editing
>quadro
"no"

>>54890906
Video editing is done with the CPU. Now rendering, 3D modeling, and CAD is where you'd get a Quadro or similar card.

What the fuck

You probably don't need such a large power supply. Why not save money and crossfire two 480's?

Because perfect scaling doesnt exist outside benchmarks and 1 or 2 very well optimized titles. Everything else will run only slightly better than a single card, or sometimes even worse than a single card.
