Looks like an excellent build. The only thing I noticed is that your power supply is a bigger than necessary. You could use a 500-600W and save a little bit of money. Also, that motherboard is not really intended for SLI/Crossfire mode because it only supports X16,X4 mode on the PCIe Slots. It could do it but the performance boost would not be quite what it would be if it supported X16,X16 or X16,X8 or X8,X8 modes. I would have gone with this instead ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0.

someone had told me that my original PSU (500w) was not enough and I needed a 700w
my current motherboard is cheaper than the one you have listed so I would stick with my current
