This is my build : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/h3RtmG , as you can see i havent finished yet so thats why i decided to ask you guys :
1. What case should i choose for this build ?
2. What Power Supply should i choose considering i want to Overclock those 2 GPU's ?
3. What do you guys think about the EVGA HYBRID 980 ti GPU's ? Are they one of the best 980 ti's ?
4. 2x EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB HYBRID Video Card vs 1x EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB HYBRID Video Card ? Give me some tips too please !!!
5. The RAM i chose is enough for gaming or i should have added 32gb or ram ?
6. Do the motherboard will have an impact to my games , what about to the GPU's or other parts ?
7. The motherboard i chose is good ?
8. Should i have waited for PASCAL gpu's ?
Please help me :D

1) I'm a big fan of fractal design cases, they have solid build quality and are well priced, the define R5 is a good pick
2) Evga make good power supplies, the 850W G2 should suit your needs, but if you ever want to upgrade you might consider a 1000W P2
3) Being a water cooled card it will have marginally better overclocking potential, but cards these days rarely thermal throttle so you'd be just as fine getting the non hybrid ones, then you could water cool after if you wanted. If you don't want to do custom water cooling the hybrid cards are a good choice though.
4) Two cards over one won't give you much of a performance in most games, just in benchmarks etc. One card will give you good frame rates on ultra settings in pretty much...

4) Two cards over one won't give you much of a performance in most games, just in benchmarks etc. One card will give you good frame rates on ultra settings in pretty much any game out there, then you have the option of upgrading in the future without having to commit an extra $600 now
5) Ram is fine
6/7) Mobo is good, Asus make solid motherboards
8) So the 980ti will be fine for several years, there is no particular need to wait, but if you only get one card you could grab a pascal gpu if you wanted to with you money you didn't spend, but again it's not necessary
