Budget:
$3000 Expectations: 1440p / 4k gaming primarily FPS Hi all, looking to pul the trigger on an Apollo now that the 1080ti just came out. Have provided my config below. Will be used 100% for gaming primarily FPS - Currently have a 1440p monitor but will look to upgrade to 4k. My main questions re: config/ help in validation: -Chose Asus Rog strix Z270H motherboard as I may look to do SLI down the road (Assuming this is ok?) -Chose 850W Power Supply as I've read this is recommended if you go SLI (recommendations welcome) -Put in a Separate wifi card as my computer will not be near my router. -is 16GB Ram sufficient? Any / all advice on other options I should be looking at or whether I should tweak my current options are welcome! thanks in advance! _____________________________________________ Config below: Total Price with Instant Savings: $2,845.00 Specifications: Chassis Model: Special Deal Hot Seller - Digital Storm Apollo (Black) Exterior Finish: - Standard Factory Finish Trim Accents: - Standard Factory Finish Processor: Intel Core i7-7700K 4.2 GHz (Codename Kaby Lake) (Unlocked CPU) (Quad Core) Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix Z270H GAMING (Intel Z270 Chipset) (Up to 3x PCI-E Devices) <br><strong></strong> System Memory: 16GB DDR4 3000MHz Digital Storm Performance Series Power Supply: 850W EVGA SuperNOVA <br><strong></strong> Expansion Bay: - No Thanks Optical Drive: DVD-R/RW/CD-R/RW (DVD Writer 24x / CD-Writer 48x) (Internal) Storage Set 1: 1x SSD (1TB Samsung 850 EVO) <br><strong></strong> Storage Set 2: - No Thanks <br><strong></strong> Storage Set 3: - No Thanks RAID Config: - No Thanks RAID Card: - No Thanks Internet Access: Wireless PCI-E ASUS PCE-AC56 (Supports 802.11ac) <br><strong></strong> Graphics Card(s): 1x GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB (NVIDIA Founders Edition) (VR Ready) <br><strong></strong> Sound Card: Integrated Motherboard Audio HPC Processor: - No Thanks Extreme Cooling: H20: Stage 2: Digital Storm Vortex 120mm Liquid CPU Cooler (Fully Sealed + No Maintenance) HydroLux Tubing Style: - Not Applicable, I do not have a custom HydroLux liquid cooling system selected HydroLux Fluid Color: - Not Applicable, I do not have a custom HydroLux liquid cooling system selected Cable Management: Premium Cable Management (Strategically Routed & Organized for Airflow) Chassis Fans: Standard Factory Chassis Fans Internal Lighting: - No Thanks Airflow Control: - No Thanks Chassis Mods: - No Thanks Noise Reduction: - No Thanks LaserMark: - No Thanks Boost Processor: Stock Factory Turbo Boost Advanced Automatic Overclocking Boost Graphics Card(s): - No Thanks, Please do not overclock my video card(s) Boost OS: - No Thanks, Please do not tweak the services on the operating system Windows OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Home (64-Bit Edition) Recovery Tools: Factory Reset Feature (Restore Windows + Drivers) (Partition up to 50GB of Storage) Virus Protection: FREE: McAfee AntiVirus Plus (1 Year Service Activation Card) (Not Pre-installed) ($35 Value) Office: - No Thanks Game: - No Thanks Display: - No Thanks Surge Shield: - No Thanks Speakers: - No Thanks Keyboard: - No Thanks Mouse: - No Thanks Branded Gear: - No Thanks Priority Build: - No Thanks, Ship Within 15-20 Business Days After Order Is Successfully Processed Warranty: Life-time Expert Care with 3 Year Limited Warranty (3 Year Labor & 1 Year Part Replacement) |

Just to add... the answer is Yes to your questions.
An 850 watt psu for sli 1080ti should be fine. I personally would go 1000 watt but that's me. |
