so I've finally decided on what my rig should contain, and I was curious for some critique and advice, ie. should something be different to gain more performance for the same buck etc etc.
The whole thing will be thrown into a well cooled case, and overclocked. Not any extreme OC'ing going on, but some at least, but keeping it stable.
What are you going to be using this system for? Gaming i assume?
If you are only at 1920x1200ish get 1 GTX275 and get a second one later on if one wont do it for you, the GTX285 is way more expensive than it should be for being a slightly higher clocked 275, and the OC'ed ones are super expensive

What case are you getting that you need to get 5 extra fans?
I'm getting the Antec P183, which already has 2 fans in it, and 3 open spots. I bought 5 of the Noctua for their high performance and low noise level. Yeah it might be too much, but it's fun
It will be used for gaming yes, and I also forgot to mention that I'm gonna throw in the 2nd gen Intel SSD for my OS/games drive.
A 750 will handle 2 GTX275s, you need 850 for 2 GTX285's but a single GTX 275 should be plenty for that resolution, two will let you max everything out with playable frame rates.
Also since your question is "Does it make sense?" I thought I would point out that it doesn't make sense to pay $350 for that motherboard. This one suits your needs perfectly and is $100 cheaper. And of course I agree with hunter that a single 275 will be fine as well.
