What are your thoughts on this build? Gaming computer

Hi,

My friend wants to build a monster gaming computer. Money is not a problem.
I want to know if you have any  recommendations or any comments to this setup.

The build, as it are right now.


ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING, Socket-1151

Intel Core i7-6700K Skylake Processor
Corsair Hydro Series H100i v2 CPU Cooler


Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Xtreme Gaming

Fractal Design Edison M 750W PSU
ATX 120V v2.4, 80 Plus Gold

Cooler Master MasterCase Pro 5

Kingston SSDNow UV400 480GB SSD

HyperX Fury DDR4 2400MHz 16GB
2x8GB 2400MHz (PC4-19200) DDR4

Here is a list from a Danish webshop. > https://www.komplett.dk/wishlists/17cfa6d7-36b2-44c3-b7ed-e44ef71bf50e
 
What are your thoughts ?  (Please note that there is a quantity of 2 in the basket - I have to build two identical systems)

Is there something I've overlooked ? Should all hardware be compatible?

Thank you

OK Now i gut a max amount ;)


2400 dollars

- So X99 is not an option ;)
Fair enough -  It's always easier trying to spend someone else's money :)

Stick with your original plan but maybe if it's in budget look at an ROG version of the board that might give you more OC options.

He got a 1 tb SSD drive @ home.


Memory upgrade will be done later on.
maybe he can install the ssd in one system then, and leave one with 500 Gb ?
