This is basically the setup I am aiming for, I picked the case due to the fact that I am going to add a second system just because, sounds like something fun to do.

The cooling will be coming from corsair hydro x series for a full custom water loop, I will be running a dual pump configuration, separating the CPU block and the 2 GPU's.

This is a sample of what I am wanting, just looking for some input on what you would change / add to the system.
Keeping all the parts matching, asus/corsair.

Thanks for your help and look forward to hearing your input!

What suggestion are you looking for exactly?
Imo you should get either the Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero or the watercooled Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Formula

2,700$ computer, it's not time to cheap out on the Motherboard, specially if you plan on overclocking this beast out.

ASRock X570 AQUA if you really have a big dick.
asrock is asus sister company as well so its still kinda in the brand.
Might as well go for higher speed ram also.
1600w seems excessive also even with an oc and dual 2080ti's

/edit
Actually look into trident z's 4k ram at 15cas.
idk if its out yet but that would be the bees knees.

I'll look at these, do you by chance know if they are compatible with the corsair hydro x series? I can always go with ek, just wanted to stick with corsair due to the icue and being able to sync the blocks and everything easier.

Yeah that's a beast, I'll keep it in mind!
I just added the ram to get an idea of the price, I'll change it to higher speeds for sure.
It is definitely excessive but cant ever go wrong with more power!

I absolutely will, I plan on doing step by step pictures once I start, which will be in about 3 weeks to a month, so still more planning to be done before final build.

Yeah it is most definitely but I've been wanting to do something like this for a while and now I'll be able to.

Dude I'm 100% for it, I rarely get to do these builds, and when I do its for other people.
Also what tubing? big dick metal pipe, wimpy soft plastic or hard plastic?
Double glass panel case... you best custom fit them cables. I'll be watching for that wire management.

Probably going to be a week+ to build and you'll probably need to mod the case somewhat as well.
I will say don't be dumb get the proper tools for various things being cheap there can really hurt.

I did 1 for someone about 7 years ago, built myself a computer about a year ago and gave it to my brother (cheaper, rtx 2070/ryzen 5 2600x) now it's time for myself, its gotta be a beast!

I was looking at hard tubing with clear liquid just to be able to see the rgb and not ne stuck on 1 color.
Is there any benefit to metal tubing vs hard plastic besides possibly little better cooling performance?

My fathers friend actually does the cables so once I get everything measured out and the color scheme I want on the cables then he'll do it for me.

Most definitely I have the majority of what I need just because of my job, only thing I'll need to really pick up is the tools used for bending the hard plastic tubing.
