Questions some of you may be asking:

Why such a beasty CPU? I need it for my massive FL Studio projects. I also do some video rendering and other stuff that would benefit from it.

64GB of RAM?!!??!? Yes. Believe it or not, in my current rig, I'm already using up all 32GB with my projects and they're only getting bigger.

Speaking of which, why are you getting an entirely new PC when you could just upgrade your current one? One reason is because these computers will be at different houses. Another reason is that they can both be used in tandem, as I often do some server hosting stuff and it would be nice to host servers from a PC I am not currently using.

Where are the monitors, OS, etc? Right now I will be using a single 1080p monitor until I can decide which one I want + if they will go down in price later on. As for OS, I already have a copy that I will be using.

Note: I may upgrade the 980 to a 980Ti. Not sure yet.

 

You're already spending 2K+, go for a 980Ti. Performance is much much better for like $100 more.
Also, get some hard drives, a single 400GB SSD is obviously not enough for projects that require 64GB of RAM. It's also a really really expensive SSD, you sure you need that speed?

 

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I'll be yanking a 500gb SSD and a 3TB HDD from my current rig. It'll still have a 3TB HDD and a 250GB SSD. The 400GB SSD will be for my orchestral sample libraries that I commonly use. It's a PCI SSD with 2.2GB/s read speeds.
