Hello, I'm about to purchase the following products to build my first computer. It is gaming targeted. Please let me know if you see any conflicts in the build. My major concern is the power supply, will it be big enough to power two of the gpu in crossfire? Thanks!

Here is the build:

Your case is going to be a bit small. I recommend a Corsair 300R or 500R. Your PSU will not support Crossfire, especially with a 7970. You would need at least an 800 or 850 watt to do it safely, and probably closer to 900W for any overclocking, either for the CPU or the GPUs. Also, get Corsair Vengeance LP RAM. I find Corsair more reliable than Kingston.
