This build is mainly for processing large laser scan data sets using Leica and Autodesk software. Cost isn't a concern.
Build is purely functional, will be in an office environment. No case windows, no RGB lighting.
I would like to have a decent overclock but nothing extreme. Stability is very important.

CPU: Intel i9-9980XE
Mobo: ASUS Prime X299-Deluxe II
Ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB DRAM 128GB (8 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 3800
Video Card: nVidia GTX 2080 Ti Founders
Power Supply: Corsair AX1200i
SSD: (2) Samsung 970 EVO 2TB
Case: Fractal Design Define R6 USB-C Blackout
Monitor: LG 34GK950G-B

Custom Water Loop
CPU Block: EK-Supremacy EVO X99 - Full Nickel
GPU Block: EK-Vector RTX 2080 Ti RGB - Nickel + Plexi
Pump/Res: EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM
Front Rad: EK-CoolStream PE 360 (Triple)
Top Rad: EK-CoolStream SE 360 (Slim Triple)

Unfortunately, there are several components that are not released yet, or are unavailable. Current plan is to buy all these items as they come available.
I'm looking for comments and suggestions on the build, it's bee a while since I've done any builds.

Thank you
 
Does the software you will be deploying use the GPU for image or data processing? If not the Nvidia GTX 2080 Ti will be of no advantage and a waste of money and I don't think it is needed for that monitor which is not even 4k.

Your PSU is probably overkill as well.

The other question mark I would have is the frequency of your RAM. Trying to run 128 gb of RAM at 3800 mhz could cause problems by overtaxing the IMC. Maybe some of the gurus around the forum can comment on this.
 
Psu is overkill. 850w is plenty, even with overclocking.

You wont run 128gb at 3800 mhz. That will need to drop to 3200mhz or so and likely require some tweaking at that.
 
The software does use the GPU for compute operations. Thanks for the RAM suggestion. I will look into a lower frequency RAM with better timings.
