Feedback on a potential full rig build

Question

Hey gang, could I get some feedback on a building I'm considering?

The only thing I can see being a potential issue is (a) the case not being silent enough and (b) cooling.

Decided to give up the games and jump into this along with Substance and frankly Adobe CC.

The build:

And (separate) two Dell UltraSharp 27" monitors (with a desk mount).

Looks like a really solid rig! Maybe a bit overkill for most Adobe things, but that power would definitely come in handy when doing 3d work.

@jlampel That's what I figured too but it's nice to be validated. Thanks Jonathan!

Going all in! I like it!!! I think the cooling should be ok. Just have the watercooler fan be the exhaust on the back and load up the rest of the case with intake fans. Or you could get one with a 2 or 3 fan radiator and put it on the top. You want to have more air coming in then going out, it'll force all the hot air out and cool faster. As far as the sound goes, you could just get some silent fans, they don't cost much more then normal ones. I have an open front case with 6 fans and I hear my graphics card over my case fans when they get going. And you would probably be fine with a gaming graphics card, save yourself 600-700 bucks. Then you could get a Threadripper! :):):)
