This is cheaper than your original build but much faster due to improved GPU. The motherboard you chose does not support 2 GPUs. Your choice is good and I don't recommend a system with 2 GPUs unless you have 3 monitors. I created two killler builds cuz the 7870XT is hard to find, cuz everyone wants it.

The mainboard has a built in Ethernet controller so as long as you have internet connection your board will support it. And I would agree get a better GPU if you can afford it. The GTX 660 is on the low side for a gaming rig but if the GTX 660 is all you can manage you can always add a second one later on and do SLI to give your system a boost.

I would keep the PSU because if you go with a SLI setup later on you might need the extra power.

BTW. Once you make a build on the partpicker website then click on "BBC Code Markup" and select "Your Preferred Merchant List" then Ctrl+C to copy it and go to tomshardware and paste
