The gpu is outdated, the cpu is overkill for gaming, the i5 4690k would be perfect for gaming, but it's definitely not a bad build. I would sell off your gtx 480s and buy a newer single gpu, possibly the gtx 970. You could also get a cheaper Mobo, a msi gaming 5 would work well. The gtx 970 would also lower your energy usage so you can get a 600-700W Psu instead.
