I'd like to have to have the option of dual-boot for light gaming on PC.
Running Seirra for Logic Pro X and Pro Tools - this device I aiming primarily for recording and mixing use for my new setup so would like to have optimised silence and and performance.
This is replacing my 2014 Macbook Pro Retina that has served me admirably for university work for years but my demands for music recording has taken a much higher toll.
Monetary concerns are not a problem is this build I as am looking for a long term investment that will service me well for years to come :) really appreciate all of the community support and know how as a first time builder which limited installation know how.

CPU: Intel Core i7 6700K
MoBo:ASUS Z170-Deluxe - Thunderbolt is essential so I can run my Audio Interface which is a Focusrite Clarrett 4Pre
GPU:AMD RX 580 GPU Sapphire Nitro + - I'm told AMD enabled Open CL will be much smoother in general is this true? or should I just get a GTX 1070 for 1440p?
RAM:16 GB 4x4GB DDR4-3200 Memory
CPU Cooler:Corsair 100i CPU Water Cooler
PW:Corsair RM 650x Watt
Case: Corsair C70 Vengeance Case military green - Am thinking of purchasing this case but it could be too loud perhaps unsure? was thinking this or a Prodigy M?

I don't have any ideas for storage solutions or more efficient cooling solutions but would love some feedback and suggestions, would anyone suggest some different changes for less grief or pain?

Thanks so much for the help guys! :)

Also guys this looks like a really good solution for a 1440p Monitor what do you guys think?
