Hey guys. New here but wanted to get my build looked over by experts. Came from a console world and this is my first build. Please tell me what you think and if you have any comments please feel free to share them. I've done months of research and I feel this is best for my needs. I will be playing a wide variety of games at ultra settings on a 1440p 144hz moniter. Also keep in mind CPU will be OCed to 4.4ghz.

As I said I will be running most games at 1440p at ultra settings. These games will also be streamed on Twitch on my channel. (CS Go, Arma, GTA 5, The Witcher, ect.)

Currently I really like the color combo. (Aesthetics lol)

The Acer VG248QE will be for Twitch chat and links not gaming.
I will also be using an Elgato Capture card and a Rode Nt1 mic its shock mount And pop filter that will go into a channel strip that has EQ, compressor and equalizer.

Any changes or suggestions?

CPU Intel i7 4790k
CPU Cooler Corsair H100i
Mobo- Asus Maximus Hero VII ATX
RAM- Corsair Dominator 16gb (2x8gb) DDR3 1886
GPU (x2) MSI GeForce GTX 980 Twin Frozr
Storage Samsung 850 Evo 250gb SSD
Samsung 850 Evo 1tb SSD
Case Corsair 750D ATX full tower
PSU EVGA SuperNova 1000G2 1000W 80+Gold
OS Windows 8.1 64 Bit
Sound Card Creative Labs ZXR
Case Fan (x8) Corsair Air series SP120 Quiet
Moniter Acer XB270HU
Keyboard Razer Blckwidow Chroma
Mouse Razer Deathadder Chroma
Headset Sennheiser PC363D

The total build price so far is around 5000 with everything. Not concerned about budget but I am comfortable at 5k. However if I will be getting a great upgrade I will happily spend more.

Lastly I am not gaming at 4k ( I have a few high end 4k tvs don't need anything more than 1440p) so I don't need a 3x Titan X setup like Lirik.

Again thank you and sorry for making this post so long just wanted to get every detail in.

Wow, what an amazing budget! It's a pretty good build, just a few tweaks to make it even better:

Swiftech H220-X, not only quieter but more effective than the Corsair H100i. Considering the price of this build you might as well go all out. Got you some nicer RAM in a red and black colour scheme. I don't understand your logic behind the small and large SSD, as SSDs in small capacities are slowish, then they get faster as the capacity goes up and then slow down again when they reach stupid high capacities like 1TB. 500MB is about the sweet spot. I personally prefer the Enthoo Pro over the 750D, and I threw in some 140mm fans to go with it. The power supply was overkill, you start to lose efficiency when...
