I assume you're delidding too before you throw in the custom loop?
My last fittings and CPU block are coming in on Tuesday from Amazon then I'll be all finished up with mine
Edit: I also moved from my 3770k to 3930k

I am still rocking a 3770k in my office PC.
I am wondering at what point it will bottleneck if I keep upgrading my GPU. Currently have a 1080 in it and no issues.

Your stuff should be redelivered Monday. I'm guessing the address you gave was a business address.
Even with a custom loop, my OCed and delidded 7700K will hit almost 80C under Prime load, Small FFTs. That was at 1.36v 5.1GHz. I have it at 1.28v 5.0GHz now, and it's in the 60s while gaming and around 70C in Prime95. Those temps are still so crazy for my loop that I reseated/repasted that thing three times to be totally sure.

I did already, we are closer now and he isn't delidded. Can go either way who is hotter.

Yeah it's a business address. Appreciate it, can't wait, got a 750D to give myself room to grow.

Any advice on a graphics card for a work machine primarily for 3D modeling? Buddy was asking me but I had never even heard of the gpu he was looking at (nVidea quaddro m4000 8gb). Is that a better gpu for 3d modeling than what we're usually playing with here?
He's looking at $4-5000 for the rig and ~$1200 on that gpu.

Sounds like it made it there, will pick it up on the way home. Then I get to start tinkering, yey!

Random question...
how much power does a hard drive/ssd usually require?
i have two drives (SSD and HD) but they are getting full. Thinking of filling an empty bay with another.

Highest I've seen when they are going full tilt on SSDs is less than 5W. Probably more like 3 at full bore.
Likewise worst case in HDD would probably be below 10W.

When you say "primarily" for 3d modeling, does that suggest he might be wanting to use to it for gaming? If so, quadro cards are out. Even still, find out what software he's using and the complexity of the models he's rendering. Some software doesn't even use the GPU for rendering, so any expensive video card would be a waste.
In terms of architecture, the Quadro M4000 is a gimped GTX 970. Nowadays it's extremely unclear what tangible advantages a pro card offers over a gaming card, other than vendor "support" because the cards are "certified" for certain Autodesk/Adobe products. Also, they are undervolted/underclocked compared to their GTX counterpart, which means they'll run cooler and quieter (for those sustained rendering tasks taking hours/days on end). But if that were really an issue, underclocking/undervolting a beefier GTX card would accomplish the same. Used to be that you wanted a Quadro for supposedly better OpenGL performance, but I don't think Autodesk or Adobe use anything but DX now. And I'm pretty sure GTX cards have the same OpenGL support in their drivers now.

I still want to buy a 980ti or 1070 if anyone is selling.

I told you I had it. Also posted once a month since buying my TITANs last September/October.

Did you sell one? I thought you had sold both

Opened up my monsoon fittings last night, no wrench and missing 1 fitting. What the hell Amazon?

Fully stock bench 
Max load temps:
GPU #1 - 35
GPU #2 - 32
CPU - 43
fricking awesome since I used to get 80+ for each card and upper 80s for the CPU
