Best solution
I'd advice you to wait for the 900 series to release, then we can talk about some real power (though its unlikely a single 900 series it'll be better than single 295X2). Or else, a monster awaits you: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/9qTVf7

Obviously with this budget you don't intend to do ordinary gaming. Are you going for 4K resolution? Triple-1440p? Is this purely for gaming, or do you have workstation-related needs as well? Do monitor(s) need to fit in the $5000 budget, or is that literally just the tower?
As an aside, I'm going to add that Nvidia has new hardware likely to be revealed in the next few weeks. With so much money in play, it would be wise to wait and see what happens with that.

Essentially, I don't really know what the best hardware is at the moment. The $5000 is just for the computer, not mouse/keyboard etc...If you guys could help out that'd be amazing.

Good luck mounting 2 water cooled 295X2's in a case, even if they fit it would look ridiculous.
I'd still go with 2 (or 3) 780ti's.

I sometimes run a gaming server as I play (for my friends and I). I will probably run triple monitors. The budget would preferably fit in the monitors, however if not that's alright.

I wouldn't go above 3-way SLI. A 4th card actually decreases performance - check out this video.

Framerates are lower in every game they tested.

I'd go with the superior H100i over the H100. Additionally, I wouldn't recommend getting stuck with 3 GB of VRAM for the kind of gaming a $5000 PC should be capable of.

It's a huge waste of money if you ask me. Spend $2500 on a PC and then put the rest in the bank, everything above dual SLI is a waste of money if you're not running huge monitor arrays.

I'd go with the superior H100i over the H100. Additionally, I wouldn't recommend getting stuck with 3 GB of VRAM for the kind of gaming a $5000 PC should be capable of.The H100 is a bit dated. The H110 (in the build) has a thicker radiator than the H100i and sports more cooling capacity.
Fair point on the 3GB of VRAM.

I did consider GTX780 6GB cards, but right now the R295X2 are just simpler and leaves any monitor option open.
(I'm all about ridiculous with all in one coolers) Not that difficult to mount in most decent cases.
H100i would go in the front panel, this would sacrifice push/pull but that isn't a big deal.
GPUs ; Couple of possibilities. Side panel is fairly easy. Or one rear exhaust one mounted to the top exhaust. If they can stretch far enough, both in the top exhaust.
From the looks of everything GTX980 won't beat out a Titan Black or 780Ti. Lower power requirements would be an advantage.

Oh, sorry, I misread that as "H100."
