I have the money and I have a shell plus software and OS

Can you make some improvements to make it better and if possible cheaper I mean don't spend it just because you have it right mostly this will be for video/graphic rendering/ revit/ cad/ Adobe/ and gaming and it will be highly used I used my last computer everyday for 10+ hrs for about 5 years so I'm going to need this to be efficient/and long lasting

Personally, I'd go with two Titan X in SLI.
I like your use of the PCI-E HD -- its the way we all would like to go when the money is there.
And you will have to go to a larger power supply, 1200 at least.
Don't forget to do liquid cooling for the GPU's as well as the CPU.
