I was wondering if this build could play at a reasonable frame rate on max or high settings @ 1440p

If you're getting this build for gaming, I think you could increase performance in the graphics card and drop down on other parts and get similar performance everywhere else still but immense improvements in the graphics card. I personally own a 280x (Will link page with my benchmarks and reviews) and I love it but I think you could spend your money more efficiently. If you want any help just ask me and I'll make you a part list.

He's got a point. If you're planning on doing any overclocking you need a bigger power supply. That machine should use about 400 watts but under full load it will go up, I would recommend getting at least a 600 or maybe a 750 or an 850 so you can crossfire in the future.

I'd suggest this:
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1SnNh
This would get you similar performance in all parts but MAJOR increases in the graphics card. I think that this is the best build you could go for at your price point

This would be my choice, it's very powerful and well rounded.
