Big Bang for the Buck - great Video Card

After looking online and try to build my dream-computer from scratch on DELL, HP and so on, I realized that that will end up thousand of dollars above my budget and I still have not the components I know are reliable and affordable.
I have this computer now for 3 weeks and I am happy and here is why:
I have this computer now for 3 weeks and I am happy and here is why:
1. Most components are from ADATA (ROM, hard-drive), which is "middle of the line."
2. But the Video Card "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 - ARMOR" is top of the line.
3. There is enough extensions space for hard drives and cards.
4. This unit has no external bay access!!!! I am using my external USB Blue-ray drive.
5. 3 internal 3.5 bays are more than enough, plus a second bay for a SSD.
6. I will replace the 260GB SSD ADATA (which has the OS on) with a 500GB Samsung SSD for reliability and use the ADADT for storage. To have the OS-System on only 260GB is a little tied for my purposes (sampled wave program data).
7. The 2TB hard drive which comes with the system is great and useful .
8. The build in fan is quiet, but I will add one more to make sure of proper cooling. More fans also means, they can run on lower rpm and so are more quiet.

I hope these comments help to make your decisions.

There is no doubt, that this is the BEST: for Mac computers with Bluetooth. It works also with my Apple® - Apple TV® if you want to type in and use the search function faster.

I bought 2 of this monitors for my gaming laptop. I use them in desktop extended mode so I can see all my video editing tools on one screen and the preview on the second screen AND the tracks on the laptop screen. This makes my work very easy.
I gave one point less then 5, because I realized later, that this monitors have no pre-installed mounting holes to hang on wall mount or on a Dual Monitor Mount.
I build myself a stand out of wood to have the right height.

Very fast, easy to setup and nice design * it looks waaaay better in person than the picture*. Sold glass side panels are easy to remove leaving plenty of room to work with, And the high clocked 1080gtx 8gb says enough for its gaming performance!

Where can I get the detailed spec on this? It just shows the basic stuff not the in depth information of the hardwares. Like who made it and stuff.
1. Hard Drive and memory by ADATA, which is a middle of the road quality.
2. Sound card is top of the line NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB ARMOR
3. Fans have 3 different speeds,at last one more would be better, but they just cost $12,
4. Case has no external accessible bays, so you need usb CD-dvd player

Photo editing
I want two monitors that will be hooked up with VGA and HDMI..for photo editing..I need something that will show me on screen what I will see when printed...
I am using two of this "Asus - 27" IPS LED HD Monitors" for exact this reason. One monitor on HDMI and the other on the VGA connection of my laptop.
It is very important that you adjust the color by going in your editing software to Monitor Calibration and follow the instructions. After that I developed one of my pictures and compared again the results with the monitors. I then adjusted the monitors to match the colors and contrast manually ... this process is very important and takes some time.
Most laptops and desktops support only 2 monitors with there build-in video cards. To use also my laptop screen, I bought an external USB-HDMI-adapter ($40-80) and have in this way 3 monitors available.
See attached picture ...
