Two 4GB 290s in crossfire would outperform two 3GB GTXs in SLI in gaming at 1440p. Not by a large margin or anything, but considering they're $150 cheaper than two 780s it's a no brainer to me.


There is just no reason to spend so much on motherboard and RAM so I saved a lot of money in those areas without any loss of performance or quality.

I chose the H100i because it's highly rated and well tested and cheaper.

The Antec 900w is better and more reliable than the Corsair psu you selected.
