Build advice

Okay, so in terms of the PSU im thinking of picking either the Corsair RM850i or Corsair RM850. I saw that the RM850 has 2% more efficiency, but is it really worth it?

Depends on the price difference, TTL has done reviews on both RM & RMi series PSU

Well, on the website i looked they are both the same price.
I will have a look at those reviews before deciding which one i will pick, but it looks like i might go for the RM850 because of the 2% extra efficiency.

I have also decided to go with the GIGABYTE G1.Sniper Z97 motherboard and the 980Ti as my GPU.

Thank you for all the great advice :)
 
Id still go for FuryX instead of 980TI, newer games will use dx12, and will have async, which 980TI doesnt quite support, and the price is arround same, also, you get HBM which is pretty cool. Not to mention Freesync which is Free, and in my opinion, FuryX is better lookin card :)
