I have around $1000 saved up right now and by next week i'll have somewhere between 1600-1800... I"m looking for an amazing build that I won't need to upgrade for awhile. I was thinking an i7 6800k. For the motherboard I"m not too picky just want something that has built in Wifi since my current mobo doesn't and I like the option... I also want it to able to be used SLI... I was thinking a 1070 for now or maybe a 1080 if I can fit it into my budget. I am not picky about ram or hard drives. But for the case I was thinking an nzxt h440 razer edition or the white one. I don't need windows since I bought a windows 10 os and key already. But I do want a psu that would be powerful enough to down the road in a few months if I do get sli 1080's it would power them fine or sli 1080ti's when they come out early next year. Also I don't know what liquidcooler I should get since I've never used it before but I plan on having my pc massively overclocked. I could just buy a ton of the parts now and get a warranty and then get the rest of the parts like a 1080 or two in a month or so. Just looking for help and not sure what to do also I haven't really had much experience building computers so I might have to pay to have it all put together but that's no big deal... The one part that really concerns me when doing it is wiring the pc I don't want it to look like a mess and I have issues with the front panel connectors everytime I try to mess with them.

That 750W PSU will be enough for GTX1080 SLI but will be stressed and will be under load. To avoid that you can go with 1000w PSU as the overall usage will remain less than 60% which makes it stress free. Luckily you are getting RM1000x for same price as RM850x. Get it as soon as possible.

Here is the build:

Don't get GTX1070 now and upgrade to GTX1080 as you will be wasting your money. Get one GTX1080 now and add another in future. All are high quality components and are assured to last very long.

The motherboard and RAM comes with good RED lights. And motherboard being ASUS ROG series comes with high quality and easy overclocking feature and a lot more software to play with.

The case has good matte finish and red lineup improves its looks.

With this build(after adding second GTX1080 in SLI) you will not be requiring an upgrade for 4-5Years. Even after that you will be able to play games at medium settings with no prob.

My only concern is that I doubt 750 watts would be enough power for sli 1080's.
