Hello man

Yes that is a very good build. Good work. That will max out BF3/4 with ease. The 780TIs are very good cards.

they're charging $140 for windows 7 pro these days? that's crazy. lol

i'd check out some reviews on gaming at 4k and what is required to play on ultra. it's pretty brutal.

you'd get more bang for your buck running two superclocked 770 4gb cards which would cost about the same price as a 780ti.

A) 770 SLI is significantly more powerfuly than a 780ti.
B) at that resolution, you will see VRAM usage go over 3gb in the more intensive games, especially watch dogs

Keep in mind that the effective VRAM will be 4GB not eight.

Windows 7 is a very good OS along with the fact that it has been around longer and is more stable, but apparently windows 8 is getting updated constantly and has higher FPS for games. Just think about it, I know windows 8 is shit but it could benefit you for future gaming.

Anyway, the rest of what you mentioned is super great. You will be hitting 60+ FPS for decades.

Good build, but for dual monitor displays it's best to have the same monitor for both.
