Building a computer soon.

So I'm planning to build a computer pretty soon and I have some questions. First I don't know which RAM to buy, I want a DDR4 @2133mHz with a good quality and low latency, besides that I'm thinking about water cooling the system and I don't know which open or AIO system should I use and if it will it in the case I want.

I'll say about my system:
E5 1620 v3 -> someday upgrading until i7 5960x
Asus X99 Sabertooth
DDR4 @2133mHz
Graphics I'll wait the Fury X2 (that I think will be cooled with a built-in AIO water cooler, just like the Fury X)
Seagate 1TB x4 raid 0
Samsung pcie x4 M.2 SSD 128GB
Corsair Full Modular 1000w (or 1200w IDK about Fury X2)
Case Thermaltake Core P5

Also, later on I want to add another Fury X2...
So, thinking that the Fury X2 will have a 120mm radiator too, will that case support a 240mm water cooler for the cpu + 2x 120mm rom the GPUs? Or I will have to buy a 480mm radiator and do one loop for the system? I ask this because probably the radiators are not exactly 120mm or 240mm. An open loop going trough CPU > GPU > GPU would work well, or because it passed trough other heat resources it would be hot to cool the last GPU or example?

I hope someone can answer my question because I've asked two other forums, and no one answered me.
BTW, sorry if I wrote something wrong, not main language.
 
You already have those parts? The Xeon processors are for servers and don't do well gaming

Update: I don't know what your budget is but it seems to be in the $3000-4000 range.

I wouldn't recommend the Core P5 as a case because it doesn't have that good of support for cooling unless you build a custom loop.

I'd recommend building in a larger case, and skipping the watercooled Fury X's. For less money you can get a GTX 980 that has the SAME performance and specs.

You're probably looking at something like this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/kFRkYJ

I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish but you could easily get 60+ FPS in 1080/1440p for $3K USD.

I'm pretty sure about what I want to build, this Xeon have almost the same as 5820k but with 40 pcie lanes. The fury x has better 4k gaming. But thanks about the advice, at least someone answered. Now about the case, do you recommend one? I need 4x3.5" bays, and I don't want any external 5.25" bays... Then also I would like to know if it would work with AIO system or a open system would be better.
