Hey!
Couldn't find any thread about this or which forum to post in so please move to specific other of totally wrong. But this will be a C4D machine for my new work. Just need some feedback of what you think i could do otherwise with this setup.

As for graphics card it depends a little bit of how much budget they have, I have written down (2 of any of theese would do fine!)

Good
MSI Geforce GTX 980

Better
MSI GeForce GTX 980 TI

Best
ASUS Geforce GTX Titan X

And as for the rest of the parts here is a pcpicker with everyhting. Please help me out here!

Parts look ok for me - only PSU could be stronger to have enough resources if adding GPUs and the case seems to be a little bit small. Your GPUs need space if you run them on air.
Think about water cooled CPU which saves space inside the case if radiator is on top or back.

A mid tower case is too small you're going to want a full or extended arc case so you have room to fit up to 4 cards. Also that board lacks PCIe lanes. I'd look at somethin with at least 8 PCIe lanes

Updated with new case, think this would work better? Also any suggestions to a board with 8 PCI lanes? Added one but don't really know what's good and what's not.

Might add at least 2 more GPUs later, what would I need in power as far as PSU then? Water cooling would be awesome, but doesnt it gets a lot more expensive then?
