Agility 4s are fine, but they're pretty over-priced usually. Since you haven't put up prices, I don't know where you're ordering from (but I'd guess Overclockers). I'd swap them out for 840 Pros instead.
PSU is massive overkill as well, unless you're planning on adding two more Titans in there. A 600W unit would be plenty. 700 if you're planning on very high overclocks.
I'd also go for GTX 780s over Titans, unless of course you're running triple monitors.

Thanks Mate, Comments noted. Im going to be running 3 screens? So would the 780s work fine?0 -
This is your third thread. You should stick to the one.
Why are you still looking at two titans even though we recommended you to get the 780's? Hell you could get 3x780's for the same price.. The only time I would recommend Titans is if you plan on playing on multiple monitors at huge resolutions. I mean 1600p+..
Doesn't look like that RAM is compatible with your mobo. According to hwvs it doesn't support 2400Mhz RAM.0 -

Putting SSD's into RAID seems completely wasteful
3 x 1440p Korean Monitors
3 x GTX780's
16GB RAM
You don't need much more than that. Get two or three Titans if you want to get the same performance for twice the money to have a larger ePeen.
Get one or two large SSD's and a couple of HDD's. The only time you will see benefit from an SSD would be read heavy operations. i.e. Booting up the computer, loading up games one or two seconds faster, opening/saving larges files and programs. Playing single player games you more than likely won't notice the SSD's. The only time you might would be on multiplayer games when joining the server. You'll probably get there faster than anyone else but you will still need to wait for everyone else to join regardless.0 -

Depends on the chip you get, still doesn't come near a Sandybridge-E 6 core processor with more cache, nevermind to chipset memory bandwidth or PCI-e bandwidth. You have to compare overclocked with overclocked. This is a 5k build no need to cut corners of settle.

@Danger, it's a DAC (same thing, technically) and I want to try it, maybe if he buys one... :P
@fitz, good point. I'd forgotten about PCIE lanes. Still, I don't think Titans saturate the bandwidth, and sure, I can spec loop for you. Just need current components, budget, etc. and what sort of noise/performance level you're after.
OP, swap the Z87 Extreme6 for an X79 version, and the CPU for a 3930K. Now you're up to around 6.5.
Edit: See? This is what we're talking about. You know nothing. Watercooled Titans will outperform air cooled Titans, and a watercooled processor will overclock further than an air cooled one. That build will outperform the one you had specced in pretty much every game. For some reason, you decide to completely dismiss everything I said, and just go with what you want.
I tried to help, but you don't want it, so I'm done.0 -
