This is what I'm getting. My goal is to have a pc that will max everything for the next few years, and I plan on grabbing another 780 later down the road. My question to the pros: Is there anything you would add or change to this build? Please let me know. I'm buying parts today!
 
Solution
You don't need 16GB of RAM for gaming; drop it down to 8GB.

I would go with a different SSD, ADATA doesn't particularly make the fastest, nor the most reliable SSDs. Samsung Pro/Evo would do nicely.

If you plan on SLI-ing in the future, go with a HX850 or AX860 or higher. The 750 is below what is recommend, and it's wasted money if you'll need to upgrade it down the line.
