1. Get a good air cooler / liquid cooling too.
2. GPU: 2080Ti
3. Sound card - no need, use onboard.
4. RAM - get 32GB G.Skill 3200 (Intel does not really benefit from RAM faster than 3200, but if it's no holds barred budget, go 4000).

Best top of the line parts? Go for server grade stuff? Can on 24/7 no problem with ECC rams, double/triple/quadruple PSU in case of failure, fibre for tape library backups along with as many HDDs as the casing can support for RAID.

You know, in case **** happens.

Server hardware perform alot worse than consumer-grade gaming hardware for alot more cost. Their purpose is as theur name states: SERVER USAGE. Not consumer usage. Totally not worth the money spent, bad comparison. Eg. A xeon processor performs much worse than a 2700x in gaming for easily 2x more the cost. Got money, spend it wisely.

Firstly, op didn't mention anything about what he's using it for. Just the best of the best. Maybe he wants 24/7 usage with and do some mining, games as well as host some content? You never know what op needs especially since op didn't specify.

Secondly, op started a total of 2 new threads within 10 mins of each other posting the same thing. Not sure if he's trolling or anything but he/she obviously didn't read the pinned faq and do at least some homework and just want people to spoon-feed.

Dont really understand tho. You wont waste time getting cheaper components either. Its literally two clicks to buy online *whut*

And at what resolution? 4k? 1440p? 1080p? Each res have different hardqare reqs.

Anyway seeing as you seem loaded af:

1) i9 7980xe
i9 7980xe alone is 5k sgd, up your alley ;)

2) 2080ti or Titan V
Titan V recommended, about 6k sgd.

You just google "Most expensive computer 2018" can liao ;)

Can use for: anything. Can help u cook dinner. Can be your wife. At this price, it can be anything u want it to be.

You could start by helping yourself and setting a budget. If not, it seems more and more like a bad attempt at trolling.
