ASUS Matrix OR Poseidon - CHOOSE YOUR WEAPON!

In a vain attempt to prove to my wife that video games can be vastly more entertaining than most non-gamers realize, I would love to upgrade her machine to show her the rich wonder of the virtual worlds.
 
I would definitely enjoy playing games with this card. I haven't been able to justify the $$$ for a new graphics card for a few years and my GTX 460s are getting pretty tired.
 
First I would shit myself.

Then I would sacrifice my 6990 and give it to the wife. Then playing some Crysis 1-3.
 
With any luck, I'd like to replace my reference ASUS GTX570 and pass it along to my little brother.
 
put it in the wife rig so she stops bugging me about how slow dayz runs on her pc
 
Well if I win, I think I'd get some shots to celebrate.

Then when received, I'd unpack it really carefully.
Halfway in the process, I'd realize I can't possibly put a poseidon in my budget gaming gear, it'd be insulting.

So I'd go and purchase a god damn i7 5960 X, that'd the least I can do for this baby.
Thus after hesitating a lot, I would decide myself for a asrock extreme 11 x99, you know, just coz I couldn't get something worse with a 980.
Before I can decide myself for a pair of M2 SSD disks, I would have bought 3 other 980 poseidon, coz, ya know, we shouldn't let them alone.
2 sets of 4x4 corsair ddr4 and the watercooling materials in the pocket, I would have my mind set on a lian li, obv. Why not the ATX + mini ATX case, btw?
Okay, you know what, screw it : 2 other 980 in the cart, mini atx setup with another 5960x, 2 supplies (prolly the evga 1300 w for the main build?), 4 rog screens, the widest 2560pi TV/monitor I can get, 1 smaller 16/10 monitor to google things on, extra watercooling kits, tubings, sleevings and shit
 
Id use a Poseidon to stop using my gaming PC (290x Crossfire) to stop acting as a space heater!
 
Having a hell a lot of fun with it of course :D. One would turn into two for a rather potent arsenal wrapped inside of an air condition case that can get quit wintery.
 
Consider myself super lucky for possessing such an awesome card! Only way I would ever have a gpu of this class.
 
Max every game I have, and Fold for the [H]orde
