Hello all need your advice on this build for my dad. Mainly doing for trading on this computer, and maybe watch movies.

CPU+MB : i5 6600 + ASUS Z170-PRO GAMING
GPU : 2x MSI Gtx950 (For the 3 dp ports)
SSD : SAMSUNG EVO 850 250GB SSD
HDD : WESTERN.D 2TB GREEN 64MB SATA3
Ram : 2x KINGSTON VALUE DDR4 2133MHZ 8GB
Windows : MS WINDOWS 8.1 HOME 64BIT
PSU : SEASONIC G SERIES 650W MODULAR
Case :

Any thing i should change? and is there any shop that sells mounting for 6 monitors?

Get a Samsung 950 pro?

Suprising nobody mentioned abt a non k cpu on a z board

for the sake of having many monitors :)

It's like saying why some people would quad-sli titan Xs when all they do is browse the internet.

really weird or too much money to burn for browsing internet with 14 monitors.

Is the guy using it for trading too ?

It's more of a tech demo to show how the USB graphics adapters can connect a single PC to 14 monitors. Seems to me it can split a single USB port to hook up multiple monitors. Plus add up the other HDMI or Display Port, total up 14 monitors.

Dunno how the IGP can tahan getting connected to so many monitors. In the demo, only an Intel NUC is used, so no high powered discrete GPU was available.
