New gaming rig suggestions/feedback please!

[Draekan]

Hi everyone,
So I’m planning on building a custom high-end gaming rig and because I had absolutely no clue about PC’s I’ve spent the past few weeks researching components. After conferring with a few friends about my build I wanted to throw it out to a wider audience with the hopes of some feedback/suggestions on any improvements. The main focus was creating a build that is as quiet as possible whilst also packing some top-spec gaming components.

Case: Fractal Design Define R5 Black Pearl Window Side Panel
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K Quad Core 4.2 GHz CPU Processor
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GAMING X
RAM: 32GB (2x 16GB) HyperX Predator DDR4 3000Mhz
Motherboard: MSI Z270 GAMING M5
SSD 1: 500GB Samsung 960 EVO M.2-2280 SSD,Up to 3200MB/s Read | 1500MB/s Write
SSD 2: 1TB Samsung 850 EVO SSD Solid State Drive, Up to 540MB/s Read / 520 MB/s Write
CPU Cooler: Kraken X62 280mm RGB Liquid CPU Cooler
PSU: 750W - Corsair Fully Modular RM750X ATX Power Supply

Any and all feedback is appreciated and thanks for your time.

Before actually critiquing it..

1) What are you going to use it for?
2) Do you know why you are getting specific parts?

From my perspective, SSD2, the board, and MAYBE the GPU are the only parts worth keeping in that build.

Also, can you provide a link for the build, if you used pcpartpicker?

Also moving this to the Build forum.

What resolution will you be playing at? If 1080p, that 1080ti will never use all of it's power.
Also, if your pc will be used only for gaming, the 32gb of Ram will never be fully utilized unless you have a bunch of google chrome tabs open or video editing; I have 16gb and have yet to use more than 12gb of the Ram.

Monitor is a must with this kind of machine, anything less than a 240hz panel or going up in resolution wouldnt make any sense. Dark base pro won case of the year in 2016, also upped PSU to 850w, will be quieter. Asus makes better quality parts than MSI, and their strix video cards are the coolest running and quietest on the market.

Wow, I wasn't expecting anywhere near this kind of response thanks very much for all the suggestions and advice guys I really appreciate it. To answer a few of the questions, truth be told the main thing it will be used for is World of Warcraft. Now I know WoW isn't exactly the most intensive game out there, but I wanted to get a setup that will be able to run ultra on as higher FPS as I can for around about £2800. I will also be playing other games with it however, more intensive games such as For Honor and upcoming ones like Destiny 2, Shadow of War etc. I'd like to be able to play those on max settings with the new PC. As for resolution, as a PC rookie I believe with a 1080 Ti I was aiming for 1440 since the benchmarks for 4k showed it was struggling to hold 60 FPS and I figured 1440 would be abit more realistic.

Only other thing I think worth mentioning is that I don't really replace parts very often, or haven't historically so 'Future proofing' as much as possible would be fantastic. For example I'm currently running the original GTX Titan with which I've had to recently lower my settings in WoW because its starting to struggle on Ultra.Thanks again for your help folks I really do appreciate it. Extra thanks to your Fascinate for putting that list together for me

Edit: Oh and I've been using https://www.box.co.uk/custom-built-pcs to configure the build, since I don't really have a great deal of knowledge on PC's in general, using a company to put it together seemed like the best option. Downside of that is the lack of options I guess since alot of the parts Fascinate mentioned aren't available
