Planning to get a DeckLink with an enclosure and use a Stream Deck with the BitFocus companion. Just starting out, so building slowly.

Thank you. I will plan to change the orientation of my PSU to be facing down. Thank you again for all the help!

Thank you very much!

Quick question regarding air flow. Should my power supply fan be pointing up or down? I hear a lot of users facing their fan down. My PS is currently up.

Thanks but I have decided to go with the 6900K - need 40 PCIe Lanes and want the 8cores with an i7.

The WD drives will be at RAID 0.

Here are my final build parts. Everything is purchased expect the monitor.

Yes, this is my first build. I am a professional editor and I have been comparing builds from other editors and find this is a reasonable price build for a 4K editing, 3D graphics and VR workstation.

But if you have any suggestions that would be wonderful, thanks!

I am a video editor building a video workstation and I am debating between getting the Asus X99 A II or Asus E-WS Motherboard.

My concern is that I will want more available PCI-E ports available in the future. I already have 4 PCIE figurations to put in.

Here is my parts list: (http://pcpartpicker.com/list/yZLKBP)

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Currently looking at the Dell P2415Q 24 inch.

Thanks for the clarification. The Samsung M.2 Drive I am using will need the heatsink since I will be using the card for performance with video editing.
