Additional Comments:[Bought the EVGA 780 Ti from a good friend who decided to go with a crossfire setup. He didn't feel like going through the motions to return it, and sold it to me for $350 so its non negotiable in this build. Also i don't specifically know which EVGA 780 ti it is, although he told me its "the most expensive one.]

Sorry, I realize now that I wasn't clear in my original post. The $2000 doesn't include the peripherals. So is there anything you would change?

Edit: What about this http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2obZI
Edit 2: I'm going for a red and black theme.
