Hello every one,
I am trying to build my first gaming PC. I want to play games on a 3 monitor system. After spending a month on research, this is what I have come up with. (I'll be using this system for gaming and video editing):

Mobo: Asus Hero vii
CPU: Intel i7 4790k
video card: 2 x saphire tri-x r9 290
Hard disk: samsung 250gb ssd + seagate barracuda 2tb internal harddrive
Memory: G-series Trident ddr3 2400 (2 x 8gb)
Cooling: corsair hydro series 110
Power supply and Case: not yet decided
Monitors: 3 x Asus VG248QE
Keyboard and mouse: open to suggestion

Can you please let me know if I can get a better product for (roughly) the same price as above. Also, I am assuming that the 2 video cards are enough to drive the 3 monitors.

thanks

Trying to game on 3x144Hz monitors is tough. I'd suggest going 3x60Hz otherwise put more money into GPUs to get 100fps.
