When I first built the Guinness, I went for more of a "Budget" route... I didn't spend a ridiculous amount of money, only about $2500 for the rig. Then Nvidia throws the Titan X in my face. For some reason, I knew I had to have one. So I bought one... then I bought a second.
Everyone told me I was stupid not to throw some waterblocks on them and make a custom loop. I don't mind custom loops, but I am a strong believer in air cooling. I had an NH-D15 on my CPU prior, and while nice, I wanted more. Much more. This is the result:
Before:
Intel Core i7-5820K
Noctua NH-D15
Asus X99 Deluxe
16GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport
2x EVGA 970 SSC SLI
EVGA PS 1000W Platinum PSU
250gb Samsung 850 EVO
2TB Toshiba 7200 RPM Scratch Disk
3TB Seagate Barracuda Mass Storage Drive
Corsair 500R
Now:
i7-5820k overclocked to 4.7Ghz on all cores.
Asus X99 Deluxe
Dual Titan X
EVGA PS 1000w

500GB 850 Evo scratch disk
2TB Toshiba Mass Storage
3TB Seagate Barracuda Mass Storage
16x Corsair SP120 HPE
Phanteks Enthoo Primo in Black
The name behind this build update is truly appropriate... the airflow is insane. There isn't a fan hole, slot, or bracket that isn't filled. Just the way I like it. Upon completion some nerdgasming occurred. Rightfully so, I'd say.
Enjoy the nerd porn.

The Guinness died with honor.
