Ugh, function following form.
Ditch the Titans, replace with 780ti's. They're faster, and even if you do something silly, like run four of them (which will actually slow the system down in some situations, while giving a worthwhile benefit in very few) you still save like $1400 bucks, which can be put towards some kind of insane RAID 0 SSD setup. Or just do triple SLI and stick one of those insane PCIe SSD's in the last slot. Oh ya.
Don't understand the quad titan thing. ....Unless maybe they're trying to push triple 4K displays? That would be 11,520×2160 resolution, which hurts my brain, but maybe the extra VRAM in the Titans would make up for their slower processing under that load?
...but at that point you've got enough money into monitors alone to buy a new car...which also hurts my brain...
I dig the slim optical drive on the side though.

Probably right.
"Why did you build a Hyundai Sonata with two Ferrari engines and the ability to transform into a speedboat?"
"What kind of question is that....why do you think?!"
"Ah."

When it comes to computer building I enjoy the unconventional... outside of the box creations: http://theultralinx.com/2013/09/ultimat ... l-rig.html
I am okay with ridiculous. Function is important though.
